For noise and temperature yes, for performance no. Maybe the 780 and Titan overclock better on water but I'm not sure.

I prefer just going with my favorite non reference card because you never know if you are just going to get a shit overclocker of a card and then watercooling would be pointless.

Its cheaper to buy a second card.

Exactly right. Water cooling isn't about performance since the cost of it will never equal buying more expensive hardware.

If you want performance, add a second card or buy a better card.
