Epilogue
The Endorfy Fluctus 140 PWM is offered at a fair price and achieves good airflow performance. A note here concerning potential US buyers of this product: The product’s price on Amazon is sky-high. You better buy this product from Endorfy’s shop on Newegg, where the price is equivalent to the EU one.
Let’s now look at 25 dBA noise normalized performance. I chose 25 dBA because it is low enough not to annoy most users and high enough to allow for speeds that offer decent airflow and static pressure performance.
In airflow, the Fluctus 140 performs pretty well, taking the lead from the Arctic P14 Max, which is considered one of the best choices in this category. On the other hand, the (fantastic) InWin Neptune AN140 costs even less, especially if you buy the 3-fan pack; it has ARGB lighting and beats the Fluctus fan in airflow.
In static pressure, the Fluctus 140mm isn’t competitive at all, with the Arctic P14 Max miles away. The InWin Neptune AN140 also has a much better static pressure performance.
There is also the top-performance but expensive Noctua NF-A14x25r G2 fan, which achieves the top performance in airflow, with a large difference from the second, and has the second-best spot in static pressure.
