Just sitting on a desktop with something like say Folding running on a single core, the CPU/GPU both get up to ~85C (185F for us Americans). I have to prop the damn thing up on books, that usually manages to drop the temps 20-25C.
On my parents old PC, the fan blew out in the PSU, and I didnt know that when I was taking it out to do some maintenance, and I got a second degree burn on my finger

There is no need for water cooling unless you are trying to break benchmark world records. Most high end air cooling will actually outperform most midrange water cooling system. Phase Change cooling is a whole different animal though, however the cost is much greater.

If you want to overclock your system, watercooling is better solution because it won't make so much noise like the huge fans spinning 10 000RPM

And this is indeed most valid reason to go watercooled... Silent PC's ftw...

Well I use sound when I play games so the sound of air movement doesn't really bother me.

i might go watercooling, considering that my case is huge. or a peltier cooler. i wanna get my cpu to 3.6ghz.
Re: Watercooling? - Versus - 10-27-2008
Peltier coolers = awesome.

Fuck watercooling.
I'd be freezing in my room if my computer wasn't heating out so much.

Also silent fans ftw, expensive, but not really much more so than a GOOD water cooling system. Also, moving water cooled systems is not fun, especially if you do it a lot.
Re: Watercooling? - Stein - 11-02-2008
I thought about it for a while, and decided it was too expensive to warrant a purchase.
I did, however, look for a budget pump and CPU block and wanted to attempt to make a "bong" cooler.
