As in it gets to warm for the cpu itself, or it gets too warm for you?

If the answer is it gets too warm for you, switching to water isn't going to help. You are still dumping x watts of heat into the air. It's just that it will be coming from your rad instead of your heatsink. Switching to water doesn't change the amount of heat the cpu puts out, just how fast you can move that heat into the air.
