FYI water and liquid cooling are used interchangably and both imply to the fact that you use some sort of specified coolant and not simply "tap water"
The cheapest and most widely used method is 90% distilled water and 10% zerex...distilled water does not conduct electricity and zerex keeps the coolant from getting filled with bacteria and junk
You always leak test for a few hours before powering your system and of course you should maintain the loop every few months or so...follow that and use the above coolant and you will NEVER run into problems

I used to same coolant as mixture as above and got a leak a while ago...cleaned up my board with alcohol and que tips and let it dry and it worked flawlessly...this even being a heavily overclocked machineWater cooling is terrible for expensive systems.....you get a leak and your whole system is fried

The problem with that is that it's only effective for a short period unless you're using some other source of active cooling...eventually the oil will just heat up since it's simply retracting it without dissipating at the same rate as the core is dissipatingThere was a thread here on TF awhile ago where some people took an old computer and then submerged it under canola oil
