So what is your preference? I have always been on the side of Air... The negative of AIO is blockage and leaks. With air you'll never have that. just dust. Blow it out and your done. I think that's pretty much basic. Air is the way to go for me. Argue my point.

Ok, so about 2 hours ago I was playing M&B Warband, and listening to some music. My computer then randomly shut down as I tabbed out, black screen, just figured my windows crapped out or whatever. Power still running, fans still going, just black screen. So I shut it down by holding down power...

They used a lot of low end Windows NT and 95 desktops and some lasted for 10-15 years with no maintenance. They were always on and...
