the problems with water cooling are as follows:
1) maintenance and installation are a pain
2) expensive
3) only marginally better cooling performance

my biggest gripe with watercooling, is that it sucks the value out of overclocking. its usually better to spend $350 more on your processor and get a $50 heatsink then to spend $400 on a watercooling setup.
