I noticed that many people are asking over what AIOs are the most reliable and which should be avoided, and since this is a very big community, i thought it could be helpful if everyone who has had an AIO fail (Pump death, DOA and of course LEAK) could check that particular one. I don't know if this will work, maybe someone can implement it better (If so, please go ahead, first thread of this type i have attempted to do) and just see if a particular brand or model is more prone to failure according to the experience of the people of this forum.

My old nepton 240M never leaked, it worked fine but on arrival no water passed through the loop even with all components working. It was replaced and my replacement was and still is perfectly functional

Maybe there is a way to do a parallel poll accounting for good experiences AIOs...I've heard so many people complaining about specific ones, i just want them to vote and go ape shit in the comments, so it gets documented somehow

out of 22 AIOs i have personally purchased , none have leaked or died.

either a noisy pump (H220, Tt, Corsair, Cooler Master, NZXT, Deepcool),

or defective LED. no catastrophic failures or leaks.

maybe the ocurrance is too rare to be measured withing this community...I'll give it a couple days and see if people start reporting

My H100i has been fine, ass hats even left it on my door step in the middle of the winter. Lucky it didn't freeze up on me.

Rattling noisy pump from Corsair H90. Dead pump after six months H105. But no leak.

Dead pumps count as total failure
