Psu fan in my moms pc is slowly dying. Naturally, i need to replace it but am unsure of how I'm supposed to measure it's dimensions.

It measures 85mm horizontally across but that doesn't appear to be a size listed on any computer parts supplier websites. It is however 120mm when measured diagonally. Plenty of 120mm fans available for sale but the fan in the psu uses a 2pin connector whereas all the ones available are 4pin's.

Should I just buy a new psu entirely? Replacing just the fan seems to be strange given the difficulty in locating a replacement part.
