Hi,

Newegg has two (3.99 and 5.99):

Sunbeam FC PCI Fan Controller - Retail
newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811992003
$5.99

ZALMAN FAN MATE 2 Fan Controller - Retail
newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835118217
$3.99

Maybe one of those will work for you.

You could also look into building your own but I don't know the risk/cost/reward of that for you versus buying one.
