The Endorfy Fluctus 140 PWM is a budget fan, focusing on airflow so its ideal use will be inside chassis, pushing air to the desired direction! It uses a fluid dynamic bearing for prolonged lifetime and it is driven by a PWM signal, so you can easily adjust its speed to your liking.
I have already evaluated the Endorfy Fluctus 120 PWM, which left a good impression on me, so it was time to proceed with the 140mm model, which, according to Endorfy, is airflow-optimized. You should note that these products are available in the EU and US markets; however, their prices on Amazon are high in the US market. You had better get them from Newegg if you are in the US, where their prices are notably lower than those of Amazon.
All Fluctus fans also come in ARGB versions at a slightly increased price. This review will evaluate the “plain” 140mm model and compare it to other high-performance fans in this category.
