Just because it is moved to a different area doesn't mean your going to get any great performance improvements or quieter computers. You are still going to need a rad (of some kind) and a fan to get anything resembling performance no? If that is the case then what's the point? :shrug:
I can see the uses in a laptop or notebook but not in a Desktop.

Isn't the purpose of water cooling to move heat from the source to another location in the loop?
Stop and think about it for a moment, you've got this very small, very hot spot. You move the heat to a much larger spot.
