This new ASUS board is covered in fan headers and they're all controllable. Previous machine would happily idle/websurf/iplayer etc if I manually turned off all the fans so it will be great if this new one can do it automatically. Water pump is completely silent (very hard to tell it's actually working), PSU and HDDs are the only other source of noise.
That said, the article you posted recently about water cooling being a bit of a PITA is pretty true. I haven't (yet, touch wood) had any disasters but it does make changing components very impractical.
