Ive heard some ppl have had leaks and damaged other components and was wondering how high the risk was. I am planning on getting the cooler master seidon 120V and don't want any problems, so can anyone recommend if I should get one or not? thanks

If you buy one , make sure it is ok before installing it . Factory defect are very rare but they exist. I saw reports about Arctic Cooling AIO destroying a pc once (the hose snapped and water destroyed everything ). you can connect it to power before installing it to test it as well.

so dont go blindly installing it without checking it for any possible defects. I am not scaring you .. it is 99.999% safe .

Only reason I can see to buy one is you don't have the space for a decent heatsink and/or you plan to overclock the crap out of an amd apu; however, I don't think there are many closed loops that would do better than that of a quality heatsink.
