AIO Liquid cooler maintainance and post leakage tips

[G9xftw]

Like the title says, I need some crucial tips on AIO Liquid cooler maintainance and post leakage steps.

I have ordered a Seidon 120V Plus, quite reluctantly. I originally wanted a Noctua NH D-15, but the bloody government in my country has levied high unreasonalble taxes on everything that I have to settle for this AIO cooler. The Seidon itslef also costing me $66.48, probably more than in the US. The Noctua was costing $125.!!! wtf, so yeah. Just need a cooler to handle summer. No overclocking at all on the Fx8320. I have a TX3evo, but that is not good enough anymore. Cant mount dual fans either, no RAM clearance. Gosh.

Other air coolers wont cut it as they hit up against my RAM sticks, all slots are full. It is the M5A97 board. Im just horrified thinking of a leakage. So incase it happens I want to be prepared. All the help will be appreciated. <3

OK, so you are in a similar position i was, had a hyper tx3, needed something more that would fit. I got the sedion 120v. Te only maintenance you need once it is installed is to clean the dust out occasionally. The only difference between the 120v and the plus is the fan is higher static pressure and a bit more cfm on the plus.

Thankyou for the reply.

Would know what is like the average lifespan for that AIO cooler?

yeah, leaks are only an issue if theres a defect, they should not develop over time if the product is manufactured properly. as said, the only maint they should need is cleaning out the dust from fans and radiators.

average lifespan....i would assume you'll get a few years out of them. they really have not been on the market long enough to have a reliable average. the failures when they do eventually die should be from the pump failing. when it happens, if you're still inside warranty, get it replaced. but hopefully it should have a nice long life and you wont have that problem.

Average lifespan would depend how hot it gets and how many hours a day you run it for. Should get at least 4 years with moderate use. Just make sure you keep the fan speed profile high enough that you don't make the liquid get too hot.

In the motherboard BIOS is have the CPU fan speed profile set to TURBO. So I am guessing its good? but personally in my opinion the fan doesnt seem to be spinning that fast. It just seems good, not the same, in comparison to my coolermaster sickleflow fans. I have a push pull config with the default fan and the other fan is a Corsair stock fan that comes with the 400R case.
