XFX 850w XXX noisy fan

[agnes]

In short, I think the bearings have gone, rather annoying as I can hear a bearing pulse whine. So, what kind of troubles am I expecting to run into if I decide to open it up and replace the fan with something that isn't busted.

I had a XFX 550w and it either started arcing or the fan bearings went, I sent it back and got a refund. If you have warranty I would consider returning it so you don't lose it. If repairing it just make sure not to touch any capacitors.
