Almost everything I've read finds water cooling superior to air cooling in performance and noise. Makes sense, considering how most modern internal combustion engines use water cooling.

 

Usually, it's just more a matter of cost, complexity, and a certain concern of running liquid inside your computer that keeps water cooling from being used more often. The 'water inside my computer' thing is what keeps me from using it myself in our HTPC.
