welcome to sharky btw 
Water cooling can dramatically drop temperatures and do a better job over air cooling systems.
However, if you only have one hot part (after monitoring system temps), such as the cpu, I would agree with kujoe, buy a good air cooler like he linked to.
A comprimise between air and water cooling is the corsair hydro series, self contained water cooling heatsink for the cpu, but none of the hassles of water cooling. Almost the same price as air cooling.

It all depends on your temps to be honest. Water cooling can be a bit priceir, but if you love overclocking and thrashing your PC playing games, it can be a good investment and quieter than air cooling if well designed/set up.
