You can get a custom loop for $200. https://shop.ekwb.com/ek-kit-l120-r2-0

regular Corsair H110 is decent. no need the "i" version for blingbling like lightning and shiity corsair link software that doesnt work half of the time.

With a 120mm rad... It will perform much worse than something like an X61

It is more future proof..

Probably the kelvin s36 or the kraken x61.

So? "Future proof" means nothing unless he plans on switching to a full loop. There's plenty of things that qualify as more future proof, but it's not a reason to buy them when they perform badly. 

 

He also asked specifically for an AIO, if he wanted a custom loop, he would have gone/asked for one. Custom loops also take up much more room and are much harder to just remove from the case when needed. 

 

EDIT: There's also an increased chance of leaking, more maintenance, risks of breaking the PC when installing and filling, having to bleed and leak test the loop and so on.
