Can replacing the coolant & tubes of EK AIO Basic 240 still function the same?

[Dexterous Fox]

I just installed EK AIO Basic 240 in the NR200p & I'm wondering what to do once the 5year warranty ends on it. 5 years is a long time & I'll probably replace it in year 6 or sooner if there's an issue with EK aio. The general accepted knowledge of AIO is summed up in this phrase: "When it breaks, buy a new one."  Yeah, aio are not the same as custom liquid builds too. If I can replace the coolant & tubes to extend the life of the AIO, then I'll do it. I'm aware of all Do's & Don'ts of AIOs

 

Provide below are the links to EK AIO Basic site & Gamers Nexus videos on it.

Theoretically, yes. I just don't see why in 5 years when you're likely building a new system you don't just get a new cooler for it.

 

I dunno, I have been building with AIO's since the original Corsair H50 and never felt the need to carry one over to a new build but that's just me.

that's just the warranty life some aio last much longer some dont. 

 

as far as changing the tubes and coolant you can it's not that hard.
