All-in-one seems like a good choice if you're not comfortable going custom.
...
I've never tried water cooling, and have never done a SFF build before either.. but I'm positive that trying both for the 1st time would've been a recipe for disaster (at least custom water - I'm almost pretty sure I could manage a closed-loop without issue).
A custom water cooling setup can be daunting, many things can go wrong because of small errors, like not cutting your hoses straight enough or having problems with the fittings not grabbing well enough. And when such things happen, you've got coolant all over your computer. It's best to try this outside of the case and on a larger case for the first (few) time(s).
A closed loop cooler doesn't have these problems as everything has been fitted and tested for you. So you just need to take care not to crimp or bend the hoses too far and you can't go wrong.
I wasn't talking to any person directly, I was feeling a certain misunderstanding on the matter and I like to address anyone that needs to know. No hard feelings !Wasn't crying, just talking (providing a response to others' posts in a friendly, non-combative fashion).
Thanks but I'm not mad or sad or anything. I'm just here to discuss and share knowledge. And since this year to enjoy the fruitful endeavours from very talented people like Necere.You seem like a smart guy/gal. Figure out a way to cheer up a little
