    Does the FM122 include a fan controller and the other two don't? Also one's black one's white maybe the supplier got a cheaper price on one colour? ...Other than that i don't know.

    The white one is loud and fast, the black one is slower and quieter and has no fan speed controller.

    The FM122 has a slightly rounded surround. For extra airflow(well thats what the say)

    Those are the loud fast ones. and yeah they come with a fan controller. Though you'll need one per fan unless you cut some cables.
