It's fine to leave it. Bear in mind they sit in a box on a shelf for months before you buy them and they work fine.

HeyGuys!

I am going away on a trip for a month.

I have an i7 4960k being cooled with the h220x, and I was wondering if its ok to leave it off for the whole month (leaving nov 3rd till 26th).

I can ask my roomate to turn it on and off if it's necessary, but can't I just leave it off and just turn it back on when I get back?

Current Build:

 

CPU: Core i5-9600K MOBO: Asus strix z390-i RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB - 3200mhz GPU: Asus Geforce GTX 970 Strix Storage: Samsung SSD 500GB & Samsung 1TB SSD Case: Louqe Ghost S1 Cooler: Noctua L12 - 92mm fan only PSU: Corsair SF600 Keybaord: Ducky Shine 3 Cherry MX Red

Yeah, it'll be fine buddy. It's a closed loop system so it's covered as far as anti-corrosive agents are concerned. You won't get any liquid thickening or blocking any part of the AIO. Enjoy your trip!
