Is an AIO liquid cooler sturdy enough for short traveling

[Mushroomboy28]

i wont go into detail, (yes im a kid) i bring my pc to my parents houses when ever i switch

would a

Cooler Master Nepton 140XL
or
NZXT Kraken X41 RL-KRX41-01

be good for short traveling? im just worried something may leak or come undone, i havent chose if i want to go with liquid or aircooled, but people are mostly recommending it for overclocking which i intend to do, etc

if its not good for moving my pc from house to house ill consider aircooling if its an option

For travel, AIO is actually BETTER than big air. As long as your screws are well connected to the case, you have nothing to worry about. Big air on the other hand can split your CPU and motherboard in half if you so much as shake it.

As long as it's securely fastened, and you're not throwing it around, it will be fine.

They are not recommended to be shipped in place, as UPS and FedEx are notoriously hard on packages.....but simple travel and transport where you're just moving it from one place to the next is just fine.

That said, the better air coolers are just as good as most AIOs for standard everyday overclocking. Where water cooling really shines is where you're pushing the envelope, but then you're talking about custom loops. When you're pushing the envelope like that though, you're also not typically talking about an overclock that you'd leave 24/7.

Great!
