Personally I don't have one.  I saw one at the last LAN party I went to
and it looked very cool.  The person did it themselves and kept their
2.5 Ghz system at a cool 28 C. 

I've read a lot about it and you might want to check out
tomshardware.com and read the reviews for yourself.  When they first
came out, the water cooled systems were just for looks but now there are
a few models that actually run quieter and cooler than air-cooled
systems.  The draw back of course is price. 

If I won the lotto (which I don't play) I would build my next system
with water cooled but until then I'll just get a big 'ole case and lots
of fans pointing every which direction.

my 2 cents
