If you want piece of mind, stick with air cooling....

Fractal Design has uncovered a manufacturing flaw in their Lumen series all-in-one water coolers. The solder used in the aluminium radiator, for example, would react to the coolant. This produces silt, which can become stuck in the cooling block's fins, lowering temperatures.
Sounds good to me

When was the last time an air cooler was in the news for a coolant related issue?

Coolants... my custom loop has been running perfectly fine for five years now with just distilled water and anti algae stuff.
