Just hook up your front case fan to psu molex power so it runs at 100%.
You'll need it especially if you haven't added a rear exhaust fan yet.
All case fans should be hooked up to the psu imo.
Btw i have a 430 with 4 case fans.

In the bios, they normally have options for fan speed control.

I let my boards handle fan speeds since they have become very good at it. Even quiet fans are not quiet enough at full speed. This way, I get very quiet at idle and even if it gets a bit louder at load, at least I know it is not going to overheat.
