I plan to start building a new graphics friendly PC for games and what not shortly. I have two PC's I've built up, on regular fan setups, but am thinking for this next system I'll go with water cooling to mess with it and see if I like it better.
Is water-cooling really that much of a difference in in-case temperatures? Does it really help in cooling the cpu and/or whatever else it can cool? I mean if it's not a huge difference from me just using several fans like I do in my current PC's, which have about 6-8 in each including dual PSU fans, then I figure I may as well stick to what I know.
Just want to hear from people with water-coolers, or who plan to get them, why exactly did you choose to go that route. I'm mostly worried about a leak somehow or something breaking and just obliterating my entire system soon thereafter. Do water-cooling companies warranty against this at all, or re-imburse for damaged PC components if their pumps fail etc.???
Thanks everyone!
