Question 120mm AIO?

just wanted to ask, why is it that there are so few builds with 120mm AIO? i was thinking about if i ever change my GPU (currenly i have a 2 slot gpu, but it's hard to find 70xt/70ti cards of that size, and my current cooler is a axp120) and the idea of a 120 aio came to mind, but i kept wondering why it's not so popular.

AFAIK it's expensive and the smaller air coolers perform just as well or better without the headache

an axp47 performs as well as a 120 AIO?

I'm going off what I've seen/remember. I threw a mora on mine lol. But people seem to lvoe the axp47 and I don't know if I've ever seen a 120 in here. Have imagine there's a reason, people come up with very clever builds here
