CPU Water/Radiator Cooler

[Coxey]

Hey folks.

Just looking for a definitive answer because I can't really find a straight forward answer.

For a cooler such a the Corsair Hxxx series, for example (Lets say Corsair H100i) do you ever need to tend to the liquid side of things? (I.e flush it out or anything like that)

Or do you literately just clear out the radiator every now and then?

I've always been a bit "mythed" when it comes to these types of coolers, never dabbled in them thus far, any tips would be appreciated as I'm considering getting one next year.

Nope, only think you need to do is clean the dust every so often

And there it is, the simple answer I've been looking for!

Many thanks - as stated any crucial things to know about these types of coolers I should know feel free to leave a reply.

TBH thats the point of AIO's (all in one's), its for people with a tight budget and little experience with watercooling, it takes out most of the fear and hassle from watercooling and you are almost sure it will work, no assembling, no maintenance and no leak testing(to a certain extent). The plus side is there is a guarantee on them so if anything goes wrong you are covered by the manufacturer.

They're completely sealed so there is nothing for you to tend to at all other than dusting.

In the extremely unlikely event of a leak, I've heard of people getting significant parts of their computer replaced by Corsair if they were damaged by the leak. IIRC, I saw they replaced somebody's graphics card and soundcard. The units themselves also have excellent warranties.
