Should I or not consider water cooling?

[Gaiden133]

Rig I am referring to is in sig, as main rig:

My quad core is running at 3.2Ghz @ 400Mhz x 8 with 30-34 idle average reading on CoreTemp, and BIOS reads 27 deg celcius for CPU. Load goes up to around 45-50~

Thing is, I have always wanted to try water cooling and test it out to see the temps. What feasible temps should I be looking at ? would it stay around the same or go even lower despite the fact that I have Tuniq setup?

I'd love to see water cooling in my rig, but not sure how much performance or value gains I would see versus the "bling" factor i'd get

opinions?

With that speed and with the right watercooling setup, you won't exceed 36-38C under full load. Look at my sig for mine.
