Some even claim that they are faster than high-end dual G5s. Developers also report that Apple's Rosetta technology, which allows Intel Macs to run PowerPC software, is fast and seamless.

It's not even water cooling really, no pumps etc. just heatpipes.

Jees heatpipes are barely better than a chunk of copper.

And peltier is a bit more extreme than water.

And most x86 chips IME will get a 33% overclock on air.

there certainly is some liquid cooling involved. it's not a traditional setup though.
