I'm about to disassemble my watercooled rig that's been a solid performer for about 4 years. I feel like it's time for change. Going back to air just for fun. Watercooling components have held up longer than I expected. In the last 4 years I replaced the water 4 times and cleaned waterblocks once. It was a great setup which I'm sure will last another 4 years with a new pump but it's time for something different. Or is this just an excuse for me to build another rig?

Lmao, sounds like a perfect excuse to build a new rig if you ask me =P.

I ended up going with Cooler Master Glacer 240L and it failed about 2 months in. ~_~ Replaced it with the Corsair Hydro Series H110 and I'm happy with the replacement so far. The reviews for the Corsair were much more promising too so I don't expect any future issues.

hehe, I "accidentally" bought that sm951 m.2 512gb drive. Now I'm "forced" to shop for a compatible motherboard/cpu
