The equation I = V/R shows that current is proportional to voltage.

Applying more than 12V to the fan will force more current thru the fan and could melt the tiny wires in the fan motor (or at least shorten its life span).

You are correct, do not try to draw more current from the PSU than it is rated for. Using a PSU that has much higher current capacity is OK.
