depends on the build quality, i had Fractal design 360 AIO running since Ryzen first gen released, until i sold if off last month.

do monitor CPU temp time to time, if motor stalled the cpu idle temp will increased and hitting max temp very fast.

Sorry to bump in but I am facing the same dilemma. Any maintenance needed? Need to top up coolant etc?

Most AIO doesn't need refiling as they are completely sealed

the shelf life of an aio depends on its build qualities.

i have an old pc with swiftech h240x that can be refilled. it's almost 10 years old now, and was not serviced until recently. (its coolant level was at its lowest; cpu temperature hit 95c++ under load)

after serviced and refilled, it's now still running strong. (cpu temperature is back to 75c+ under load)

aio is mainly for convenience. for much better coverage and performance, it's better to invest on custom water cooling. (especially when you wanna cover gpu and mobo)
