Would liquid cooling be worth it with these temps?

I was just wondering if it would be worth it. With out right now my cores/CPU runs at about 60 degrees full load and my GPU runs around 72. I keep my room fairly cool and it has plenty of fans, would liquid cooling even be worth it? Thanks
 
Solution
You do not have to use it as an intake. It can still be used as an exhaust. The temperatures would just be a bit warmer because of case heated air.

Your case has enough airflow for it not to matter either way.

Your CPU and GPU temps are fine - the CPU temp especially.

Presumably you mean full liquid cooling for GPU and CPU, not closed loop liquid cooling, which is more typically for the CPU only?

In either case what are your specs? Are you overclocking? There's little reason for a liquid cooled setup if you're not
 
With a "standard" setup of front / bottom / side intake (hopefully two fans) and rear / top exhaust (hopefully two fans), you shouldn't have many issues. H2O cooling could help, but I would question what case you have, fan setup, and if you have an aftermarket CPU cooler installed. You may be a candidate for a case with better airflow rather than move to water cooling...
 
Simply put. NO 60c and 72 for a cpu and video card is well within the specs(for any cpu/video card).

You could do it, but the performance only gets real good with more expensive or home built loops.

In general many large air coolers perform as well if not better than many of the all in one units.

Liquid cooling a video card is always great, but you do NOT have to do it.

I have a full tower Coolmaster HAF 932. 1 230mm intake at the front and side. One 230mm outtake at the top and 3 120mm at the back. I don't do any over clocking as well, just moving to 1440p and higher resolutions.
It would just be the CPU liquid cooled. So probably not worth it then from the replies.

I can pick up the corsair H50 for fairly cheap but my only concerns with that is that it is a intake in the back through the radiator so that might throw off the airflow
