Re: liquid cooling questions

Liquid cooling is the real deal for cooling if your computer is getting extremely hot during normal use and the fans, and ventilation just aren't quite cutting it then yes this would be the next step. Ideally you want at least one main fan for intake, brining in fresh air and another to push the air out. Also some decent thermal compound on the CPU, and heat sink and fan that are not stock, that provides decent airflow. What sort of temperatures are we looking at, if you need to acquire some readings either in the bios or download an application called 'Speedfan'.
