Here $4 and reasonable shipping.

Thats the cheapest place I have seen for these hydrowave bearing fans AND they have 2-pin connectors pre-installed. No RPM monitoring, but better than bare leads. My computer no longer sounds like a wind machine :D

Well I didnt have any problems, and the shipping was very quick, if that is any reassurance.

$5 seems to be the cheapest shipping, and that's if you order only 1.

I've been wanting to try a Panaflo though. All the other "ultra quiet" fans I've tried have still been a little too loud or made noise at an annoying frequency (Vantec Stealth 80mm).

Shipping costs decrease per item with a larger order : I ordered 5 fans, a fan adapter (shroud) and a pack of screws, and my total shipping was only $7.50.

this is a good deal, except, newegg has free shipping and it's more reliable. the fan runs at newegg for 10 bucks a pop, and the total cost of ordering one fan from this place is 10 bucks total with the additional shipping etc.

so... who would you rather buy from, newegg or whatever this place is called?

...unless you're going to buy in bulk, in which case, would be a different scenario.:confused:

It's not a great deal if you only want to buy one fan, but Panaflos are the kinda of fan you stock up on. They are the cream of the crop in terms of airflow/noise ratio.

For some reason Inflow Direct sounds familiar to me, like it's been mentioned here before...

Thanks OP, nice price for panaflo. By the way, the poster above is correct, NMB fans are also very quiet and cheap.

The advertising on anandtech is taking up HALF of my screen........yeesh...can I edit something in the profile to limit it?

Fry's in Phoenix had Coolermaster 80mm fans for $3.99 out the door when I was there earlier this week. Guess this deal would work for those not fortunate enough to have a Fry's (or two) down the street.

Definitely. I've probably bought over 2 dozen of these fans when they were $2.50 @ BG Micro and they're all spinning happily. :cool:

I've got both 80mm NMB and Panalfo L1As, and the NMB have more spindle noise than the Panaflos, though both are very quiet.
