Nuge, I can tell you the point of water.... QUIET!
I had one of the original models of the Koolance case. Keeping my cpu at 32c, it was whisper quiet.
(Unfortunatly the pump housing was cheap plastic, and I ended up busting off a fitting while replacing the tubing. Their support staff sucks too)
I'd love to get all my comps to water, just to reduce the sound.

Agreed. Especially for those of us who record music. Nothing like hearing the whir of your 160,000rpm sunami cpu fan in the background of your solo acoustic guitar piece.
I will give you this, you have it at 2.8 with air cooling. If you purchased an operton that ran at 2.8 it would be 780.00 on newegg and the fx 57 at 2.8 is 820.00. That's a $600.00 savings by overclocking. I'm in!
