What is so different with water cooling? I mean is it that drastically lower in temps? Or is it different in the way heat is moved away:
Is it b/c the heat is dissipated more quickly?
Smoother b/c it's a moving liquid instead of air?

And what does air cooling have to do with "exceedingly higher voltage values"? Why would someone with air be using more voltage than a water cooled CPU?
