You can change the powersupply fan, you need an 80X25mm fan with a 4 Pin plug(2 wires). You will most likely have to splice the wires together. The first thing you want to do is unplug the powersupply and press the start button several times to insure any residual power is drained off. Usually a powersupply will drain itself in a short time, but it is better to be safe. I stripe about 3/4" of insulation off each wire end( fan and powersupply), then slide abot 11/4" heatshrink tubing over each wire(usually red and black. Put each color wire together with several good tight twists, then slide the heatsink tubing to cover the splice and shrink with a cigarette lighter.
If you want to change the entire powersupply you can use a standard ATX powersupply but you need an adapter. Look under OEM Replacement here:
