a change of 20 watts just by having better cooling. id love to see a review where they see the power coming out of the wall using stock cooling on a quadcore and high end video card, then replace it with a water cooling setup and see the difference. id bet people would buy a water cooling kit when someone says it saves 10-20% of their computers power. then i bet it could do even more if they undervolt it at stock clocks.
While at first that also seemed utterly ridiculous to me, you can't forget that silicon will behave very differently at different temperatures ..
