Hi guys!
I am planning to switch from my very old CPU heat sink + fan setup to one of the Corsair AIO single radiator. I bought my heat sink back in 2009. I wanted to know if anyone has heard any common issues with the Corsair AIO when it comes to running your PC for long periods of time. Also, it would be important to know if people have killed their CPU because it somehow failed on them.
My reasons for switching below:
1) I hate having to pull out that heat sink just to dust it out. I think it would be easier to detach and dust off a radiator while the CPU block is still mounted.
2) I had to replace the fan on my Cooler Master V8 3 different times! On the 3rd time, I discovered the fan died because the PC wouldn't boot. I don't understand why Cooler Master sickle fans keep literally dying right after the 1yr warranty. I probably have had to replace like 6 in total (cpu and case fans).
