Sub 0 K temps is where it at.

Does watercooling end up being cheaper than fan cooling? The individual units are pricier, and would take more power than fans but would the extra longevity and decrease power draw from the components due to low temps offset it?

No, neither of your statements are worth considering. Terrible questions.
liquid cooling must be maintained in case of fittings loosening, pumps add new thing to fail, shit gets corroded, fluids must be flushed, etc.
Also lower temps do not decrease power draw enough to ever matter ever. I even heard that intel voltage regulators are most efficient at 115C, and if chips could get that hot then they may be more efficient.

Heat generation has nothing to do with cooling. wattage does. Watercooling removes the heat from the CPU/GPU faster than air. My whole room temps rise with water compared to air, which only made the side of my room with the pc fucking hot.
Only consider water if you're going to OC your pc as far as it will go.
Running 4.8ghz with 1.32vcore for the past year. Had the cpu since it was released...had to drop it down from 5.1ghz because it is became unstable.
temps are a little high because I haven't cleaned my PC out in a 9 months. so fucking dusty and 1 fan died. but who cares, it still runs.

With room air temp at 27c the CPU is idling on air with 4.33GHz OC.
I tried it at 4.8GHz but decided not without watercooling, though it did run stable for hours.
