If you combine Rylai with an attack speed item like Wit's End and/or Nashor's Tooth, you can constantly slow your enemy with Vorpal Spikes, and the slow will be noticeable in that case, unless your enemy has.

I don't usually like building Rod of Ages. It is a good item for Cho'Gath, but the only reason why I don't build it is that I really need the other items on my build, such as Rylai, Frozen Heart and Wit's End.

As for Iceborn Gauntlet, it applies a stronger slow, but it requires you to activate an ability, and Cho'Gath only has two abilities that can activate this item, and they have pretty long cooldowns. At least Rylai is consistent (when combined with Vorpal Spikes).
