Question Corsair H100 liquid cooler

[jonpk]

I have the above cooler and was using it on my current rig, an AMD FX 8350. I've been using it for several years and have a couple of questions regarding it's durability and effectiveness with my new setup.

1. Does the internal coolant lose effectiveness over time?
2. Does the internal liquid have chemicals in it that might cause a deterioration of the hoses and fittings over time?
3. Is there a recommended lifetime of these sort of closed cooling type systems?
4. Going from my current FX 8350 to a Ryzen 7 3700X, better to use the stock cooler or the Corsair H100?

Thanks.

Assuming it does not develop a leak usually the pump dies first. At a rough guess 3-5 years is the average life of the pump.
