I was planning to get Cryorig R1 Universal, but I found out that I could get Corsair H100i at same price, both for $90.
I heard Cryorig R1 is a high end air cooler and it works great, but I don't know about it compared to water cooling.
So for same price, what would you guys like to get?
If both have almost same performance at cooling, I should be going for Cryorig R1 right?( because of the risk of water leaking..)
The H100i's light looks really cool though.
What do you guys suggest?
If you guys have any other suggestions for air/water cooler around this price, please feel free to post!

Does it matter? Will there be any problem because of weight?
What do you suggest?

What about the risk of water leaking?
Don't I need to consider about that? Or It'll be just fine?
 
I don't think I've ever heard of a AIO cooler leaking. I have 3, the oldest since 2011 and not a problem at all. Check the manufacturer's website for the warranty before you buy. Some models have equipment damage covered under the warranty.

Thank you very much for help me to decide! I'll go for Corsair H100i.
