kinda confused

Sorry guys I'm kind of new to the computer world and trying to learn as much as I can. I wasn't sure where to post this, but I'm sure most of you can help. I'm buying a computer soon and I'm probably going to get Dual processors(AMD 64X2). Well I was looking around and I saw that there is a cooling device with water that makes the pc better. If someone can explain to me what this is, what it means, what the products are called it would be very helpful. Thank you.

um...well, thats kind of like saying "i heard about something called "Car", can somebody elaborate...?" yes, water cooling is far better than air cooling for performance, and there is a variety of setups you can have. to argue what is the best is pointless, because its usually a matter of opinion. basically, the same way water jackets in your engine keep the block cool by circulating water, water cooling keeps your PC from overheating and at an optimal temperature. there is no one cooling device that makes the pc better, its an entire area with several variations. there are many other considerations to make other than what your processor is to determine if the cooling system you use is adequate, but for a dual core AMD, plan to be spending quite a pretty penny.
