Does water cooling reduce computer noise relative to the alternatives? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.217.231.27 (talk)

It can, depending on how far you take it. In my system (the one shown in the photo), I have a fanless radiator for the cpu cooling...but I still have fans for my power supply, harddrives, and graphics card. I would think that if you had a relatively extensive watercooling system that it would reduce the system noise, or at least remove the watercooler radiator fans from the area immediately around your computer (like put it in another room). --Syrthiss 16:51, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The G5 and water cooling

Is there a website or something that claims that the G5 has water cooling? I have looked for one, but have not found one. Maybe this is false information?

This article is much too focused on water cooling of computers

This article is focused too heavily on water cooling of of computer components. It should either:

  • Have the title changed to "Water cooling of computers" and remove the section about industrial water cooling
  • Or drastically revise the wording of the article. Nobody in an oil refinery or petrochemical plant or power plant would define watercooling as heat removal from "components". Nor would anyone in such industries talk about "tubing" instead of "piping". And there is nothing involved in an industrial cooling water and cooling tower system that "... can be "purchased for $1".

I am not trying to be sarcastic. I am only pointing out that this article does a poor job of blending information about computer cooling and the vastly larger industrial cooling systems. - mbeychok 20:46, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think we can talk about watercooling of machine guns as well. Though this method is no longer/rarely used, it is of historical significance. --Rifleman 82 18:20, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
