I'll assume you're using an ATX case with the AT style backplate and power supply. You can swith to an ATX power supply in that situation, but you also have to buy a new power button (or make one, or use the reset button for power, etc).

ATX power supplies are the same size as AT

1) Buy a Fortron Source from Newegg
2) Just get a larger one than you need
3) No.
