China has made AIO air coolers cheaper and more reliable. They are ๐ beautiful and really want one with that infinity mirror but I am terrified of one leaking and destroying my entire computer.
I'm struggling to pick an AIO water cooler or a gigantic air cooler
(Random air cooler pictured above)
Is water-cooling safe? Or is it bourgeoise decadence?
^___^
I've used a AIO water block on my PC that has given me no issues for a few years now. If you have a smaller case/a case with bad airflow, it's worth it for a water cooler. But if your case has good airflow, if you have a AMD processor the cooler it came with is solid. if you have Intel I would get some sort of cooler, either air or water.
I admit I would be doing it entirely for looks since the Frozen Notte AIO and Phantom Spirit Fans I'm looking at are the same price (and will have lots of airflow) ๐ญ
Though I'm concerned I would be paranoid about it for the entire time I'll have it, the last time I got a new computer was over a decade ago lol
In that case, like I said mine has been fine for several years now. The only issue I have had is that the pump ticks when it goes at full speed because I didn't know what I was doing when I first got it. Keep the speed for the pump constant and around 75%-80% and you're golden.
