My whole intire point is that currently if you took any chip whatever using whatever sized technology, lets take the northwood as an example. It has however many transistors in it. If you double its side the amount of work it can do will double and the amount of heat output WILL, yes i said WILL, also double. So as you can see faster does equal hotter. As watercooling isn't standard normal heatsinks cant cope with this heat. So to get past this problem and improve performance, AMD and INTEL create small lower power structured transistors to reduce the temperature at the higher speed. If watercooling was standard the same speed is available very cheaply on an older doubled sized chip as the much more expensive new small chip. My point is DELL would sell watercooling as long as the public wanted it. The chip off the board WILL, yes I said it again,it WILL be safer(I know that a mobo can handle getting wet, sometimes and sometimes it can't) so the public will be more likely to accept it as standard, this will enable AMD and INTEL to improve speeds instantly.
ANyway, Texas Instruments are already producing 0.09 micron transistors.(SO guys buy up the stock now).

I read your whole post and it dosn't make any logical sence business wise or other wise, and further more you do not know if those chips will run at higher wattges. CPU's can only handle so much wattage before the internals fry no matter what kind of cooling you have. And on top of that water cooling can only go so far to cool a CPU. Even with water cooling you will not be able to double the wattage of a current CPU and still cool it enough before it eats itself. Water cooling is better than air but not that much better. And manufactuers are not going to take the liability of water cooled systems. Pumps dying, hoses leaking, water needing changing, radiators clogging, ect... It will not happen. They already have enough problems without having to worry about water cooling parts. Nottomention it would be nearly impossible to mass produce water cooled computers.
Slip in to reality. If this was that easy it would already be that way. And further more CPU manufactuers do not want to increase the speed of CPU's that much. They want to drag each speed out as long as possible to make money. if they wanted their CPU's to be water cooled they would push it.
