You might want to get it from newegg, a little cheaper:

Water cooling is only needed if overclocking and the heatsink you have can't handle it. Some coolers only last one year. Careful what you choose.

Yes it is good for gaming. It will work with watercooling but you should add a small fan near the top left if you do watercool to keep those capacitors from popping. Normally overflow from the CPU fan would take care of those capacitors.

Great mobo from what Ive read about it, dont know first hand though. Specs look good, should eat up games. Water cooling Im not sure about either, looks like you would have to get the Heatsinks off the North and South Bridge. Your call.
Good luck

WOW! Great choice.
You might want to consider good air cooling solutions from Thermalright, Scythe, Noctua, Zalman, etc. They are pretty good even if you overclock your processor.
