Just a like a CPU, a simple Aio will work on a GPU without the heavy fins, dust and noise with even lower temperature? It can be cheaper too?

Asus Astral LC 5090 and MSI Suprim Liquid 5090 are some examples of water cooled gpus

air coolers are much much cheaper.

Too cumbersome I think. Took up at least another slot in the tight casing.
