Water cooling has a higher upper limit on cooling capacity but usually can't match the price/performance of air coolers. If you just need a solution to keep temps in check, air cooling is probably the better option.
If you want to push for balls to the walls with oc'ing with no compromises, water cooling will get you farther.
Where are you shopping/located? Budget?
What case, ram, and cooling do you have?
