How often to replace an AIO liquid cooler?

[Dirty_Sprite]

I've had my H100i GTX for about a year and a half now, and it's cooling my current CPU. Come 2018, I'm looking at building a new system entirely, something along the lines of a 6800k or equivalent for the CPU. I want to know if it's a good idea to reuse my H100i GTX for that build, and if I do will it leak and need replacing in 6 months to a year anyway? Should I just buy a new high end liquid cooler?

Custom loop isn't necessary for just a CPU and one GPU, and I don't want air cooling since most air coolers look bad and this is the first build I've made where I get to spend lots of cash on making it look good. I really want a sleek looking system.


Thanks.

AIO's have a range of lifespans, but in general they last for a few years. That said, there is no reason if it's working that you can't reuse it.

You might consider a kit though instead of an AIO:

Which are more serviceable than AIOs.
