Water and electronics are NOT a good mix. A well constructed watercooling apparatus, however, will be almost completely leak-proof, and will do much better than any air cooling system will ever do.

I'm running one massive watercooling system on three computers in parallel right now, and a good sized proportion of people here use either watercooling or some other exotic cooling solution.

I would do months of research before considering it, and I would earmark about $300 before jumping into it. You really need to know what you're doing, what parts do better than others and why, and what to expect before you take a step like that. I'd start by getting comfortable with overclocking and then wait at least a few months of heavy research before jumping in. Our FS/FT forum is loaded with people trying to dump watercooling gear because they got in over their head without doing proper research. Don't fall into that trap.
