Thats why the vast majority of cars on the road use water cooling to keep the engines cool.
well

part of it is also that it's way cheaper to do water cooling in a car than sticking a big honking passive cooler on it

with PC's now, with the right kind of power management combined with big honking heatsinks and fans, you can get very near silent without the hassle of water

water is really only important if you're going to run VERY hot
eg. overclocking like a fiend
