Best 92mm Fan for PC, Server Case & CPU Heatsinks in 2024

If you are looking for a good 92mm fan for PC cooling or as a replacement fan for a device or component then you are at the right place. These 92mm fans are generally used in SFF low profile PC cases, mini-tower cases, server cases, compact 92mm CPU coolers, SFX power supplies, 3D printers, NAS server chassis, and in some audio / video or electronic equipment. You can also use these fans on your passive graphics card or budget graphics card if it has been heating a lot. Some users also use them to cool the motherboard VRMs, RAM, and hard disk where a bigger 120mm fan cannot fit in.

A 92mm fan is slightly bigger than an 80mm fan but it is substantially shorter than a 120mm fan. It offers a great balance between compact size and airflow and can be used for cooling down devices other than PC components or computer cases. These fans are manufactured by a handful of companies and here I am going to list down the best 92mm fans with high airflow and static pressure. You can use these 92mm fans on SFF low profile cases, server cases, pre-built slim PCs, mini-tower cases, audio-video equipment, on the graphics card, NAS server, DiskStation DS918+, 3D printers, and smaller CPU coolers, low profile CPU coolers and heatsinks.

Noctua NF-A9 PWM Fan

If you are looking for the best 92mm fan then nothing can beat Noctua NF-A9 PWM Fan. This is a premium quality 92mm fan that comes with Noctua’s SSO2 bearing that offers high performance, longer lifespan, and silent operation. This is a PWM-controlled fan and has a rotational speed of 400 to 2000 RPM. It generates a high airflow of 46.43 CFM and high static pressure of 2.28 mmH2O. It is also very quiet in operation and has a maximum noise rating of 22.8 dBA.

The fan can be used on CPU heatsinks and can also be used as a 92mm case fan. For reducing vibrational noise, it is fitted with anti-vibration pads on all four corners. The fan comes bundled with L.N.A. (Low Noise Adapter) if you want to throttle its speed for quieter operation. This 92mm CPU fan is a bit on the expensive side but if you don’t want to compromise on performance and quality then it is worth your money. The fan is also available in a 3-pin variant as the NF-A9 FLX model with lower airflow and static pressure @ 1600 RPM (max), but it is relatively quieter at 17.1 dBA. You can check out both these models from the links given below.

P.S. – For CPU Heatsinks, you must get the PWM variant only i.e. Noctua NF-A9 PWM, but for other use or case fans you can buy any one of them.
