Hey Guys, I Just Have A Quick Question.

I Have A Stock CPU Fan That Came With A Prebuilt (Cooler In Picture). It Works Extremely Well But I Wanna Do A Corsair Build When I Switch My PC Into A Bigger Case. Could I Just Swap The Fan For An Aftermarket 92mm Fan?

You can, but there are not many 92mm options. If it works well though, just keep it as is. Less E-waste in the world :)

I put a 92 mm Noctua 4 pin fan on an old Intel stock cooler and it worked pretty well. It was definitely quieter when under a heavy cpu load.
