Water cooling is effective, because of its density, it’s a better heat carrier than air. Water cooling (or liquid cooling) is the only cooling solution that allows successful heat removal from critical spots in the PC, with minimal noise!

HOW ABOUT SAFETY?
We sometimes hear beginners’ concerns about the safety of using a liquid cooler in a computer. Water spills and leaks can occur, but components today are much more reliable than they were 15 years ago when everything was more or less DIY. Using high-quality cooling components and following the instructions and good practices prevents these issues during setup and use. Once liquid cooling is installed and tested, you can run your computer as you typically would. Routine maintenance of the loop is recommended.
