Looking for a nzxt Kraken x62 alternative

[Tensai30]

I was originally planning on getting the nzxt kraken x62 for my cpu because I loved the looks of it. After looking at all the reviews, I see that it has a very high failure rate so I'm looking for an alternative. Can anyone recommend a high performing AIO cpu cooler that doesn't look boring like most of the coolers out there?

Same as the x62. Seems to being dying after 6 months for most people.

I'd recommend the corsair h100i v2 but I've only had it since the beginning of august so not sure if that's long enough
but it seems to get the job done with no problems so far guess it's always a risk going with an aio cooler so no matter which one you have just make sure you have enough to replace it and any damaged parts in the unfortunate event that something goes wrong
also what do you mean by "dying"? do they just stop working? or leaking?

By dying I meant either stopped working or leaked. Most complaints seemed to be the pump stopped working suddenly without warning. I think you're right about there always being a risk. I will stick to air cooling. Thank you.
