This is a rather interesting water cooling concept for Pentium 4 processors as it works without external pipes or pump. It is touted to setup as easy as an normal air cooler but performs like a water cooler.

I don't see how this is going to be quieter

It doesn't have any more finning than a large air cooled block - and appears to be using thermosyphon to get the heat from the contact plate up to the fins.
IMHO, the advantage of water cooling is that you can route the heat away from the die and into something that has lots more fin surface than an air cooled block (or into something that uses evaporative cooling).
