I am very impressed with liquid cooling my cpu has been running at like 35 degrees celsius when it usually runs at 60! or even 70 on some games, i was playing Gta V and cold air was coming out of my pc, i was actually blown away by that. It might just be my new case, but my entire pc runs wayyy colder. I can finally leave my pc on in my room without opening a window to breathe!

that's not how it works though. the cpu still creates the same amount of heat, the cooling solution just takes it out of the case faster, but your room will heat the same.

Actually, if warm air isn't coming out, that's probably not a good thing. The components still generate heat (due to thermal leakage, you might see a few watts less power consumption, but that's about it), so that heat still needs removing.

In fact, since heat is being removed faster, the room will likely end up warmer!

Fun fact. Your PC does not run cooler. It just is more efficient at removing the heat generated by your CPU. If your room feels less hot it would mean that the heat stays inside of the computer case, which would be a bad thing.
