Water Cooling

Has anyone added a water cooling system to their PC?

What did you think of it?

Was the noise level better than traditional air cooling?

Yeah, our member McDaddy had one. Last I heard it had sprung a leak!

See, that's why I have been wondering why we don't use something like Fluorinert in PC "water" coolers.

Fluorinert is a liquid that conducts heat (like water), but does not conduct electricity. It would be perfect for this.

I have a water cooled heat-sink on my CPU at home. I never really noticed a difference but then again, I never even noticed I had one until someone pointed it out.
