Is water cooling really any better than air cooling? Is it worth the extra cost?

I am putting together a new top notch pc with AMD 64bit 3200+ cpu and wondering which cooling method is best. Any suggestions anyone?
 
Are you gonna OC it heavily?

Water cooling is really only meant for heavy OCing, and is a rather painstaking method and potentially expensive one if you make a mistake and spring a leak......
 
I am not really considering over clocking. ive just had problems in the past with cooling an wondered if that would be the solution. im going for a decent case this time (Thermaltake Tsunami VA3000BNA ) with more case fans so there shouldnt be a problem. i was just wondering if water cooling would make much of difference.

think ill save the money and get more ram

thanks
 
Yeah, save you money and perhaps if your really concerned add some thermal paste to keep the temps down;)
