Air Cooler vs AIO — Which Should You Choose?
| Factor | Air Cooler | AIO Liquid |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | $25–$80 SGD | $80–$300+ SGD |
| Reliability | No pump to fail — lasts indefinitely | Pump lifespan 5–7 years typically |
| Performance | Excellent on dual-tower (PA120 SE matches 240mm AIO) | Best on 360mm for high-TDP CPUs |
| Case clearance | Check height limit (most cases 155–170mm) | Check radiator mount (front/top/side) |
| RAM clearance | Dual-tower coolers may overhang RAM slots | No RAM clearance issue |
