This review could have been a lot more negative had I not realized the pricing for the Endorfy Fluctus 120 PWM varies so much. Indeed, it appears I wasn't the only one seeing conflicting pricing, with other reviews noting these cost well in excess of $20 (and £20) from many retailers, including on Amazon. The problem is these are all from 3rd-party sellers, with Endorfy not having a strong retail presence worldwide. It's growing though, and the Newegg store will certainly help where these can be found for $12 (+ shipping). When putting my US address, each fan was going to cost ~$17.50 with shipping, although of course you got a better deal on that with more fans included. Those in mainland Europe will also find more lower-priced options, which isn't surprising given Endorfy is a European brand. But make sure you find these fans at the correct selling price, assuming you can.

At $12, the Fluctus 120 PWM is a welcome change from the many, many $25+ fans on the market today. There are of course fans which cost even less, and many which have been operating in this price range for a while now. I already know there will be comments about the Arctic P12, for example, so let me preempt those by saying that's in the works. The Fluctus 120 PWM is not a new fan necessarily as discussed on page one, and yet clearly does a decent job today. If you prioritize fan noise foremost, or are even looking for replacement case fans, these will do a great job for the money. On a radiator, things are not as peachy. But there's again the part where you can get two of these for the cost of a more premium performance-oriented, static pressure-optimized fan, so purely by this metric Endorfy offers better value. It's not for everyone, and yet I would argue more people should be looking at these budget-friendly fans in the first place.
