If it doesn't have any issues I wouldn't worry about it.

What CPU do you have?

Your temperatures seem normal, though idle is a little high but depending on what sort of fan curve you have set it might be normal. If you haven't dusted the radiator in a while then it might help. Cleaning off the old paste and applying fresh thermal paste wouldn't hurt either, might end up needing to do that if you dust the radiator/system anyway.

im not sure if its an issue because it wont stay there and i know this is what my AIO is for but ive been checking on my temps because of its age and if i leave it on the MAX inCPUID says it was at 98 c so its got me worried cause i have the money for a cooler but dont want to spend it if i dont need to

If it hasn't failed then you're approaching a permeation problem.  I'd just begin to prepare to replace it.  Whether that's saving some cash or simply researching new ones.  

 

Is the pump beginning to make any new noises?

Are you using the low noise adapter that came with the fans?

Are the fans plugged in to the motherboard CPU fan header or somewhere else?

everything is installed correctly/same as the original fans

they plug into the pump which is plugged into the CPu header

I wouldn't worry if sounds have disappeared. 

 

Can you hear the liquid in the radiator if you shake it?  Keep an ear out for it sounding as if there is ample space for the liquid to move about in.  ie The sound a bottle half full of fluid would make when you shake it versus the sound of a 99% full bottle would make.  

 

Have you ordered the new fans yet?

I only ask to say it might be more cost effective to consider buying a new AIO instead of getting new case fans.

Don't forget that a new AIO will come with new fan(s) too.
