Played Mass Effect on PC or Console?

You can skip the water cooling in my humble opinion. All of my pc's have been air-cooled. I can run Andromeda at 1440p Ultra and keep the card at 53 with just the fans. 

I also keep my rigs well into obsolescence and none of them have over-heated. Usually the only hardware that breaks is the hard drive. Everything else lasts forever. 

If you have a problem with air flow you may still run into a problem with liquid cooling, since it depends on air cooling of the radiators. 

You can build a great rig for about half that - though it depends on whether you intend to include a high-end monitor.

This. I would not consider water cooling unless I was trying to build in a small case that would be confined in some shelf or something, and thus have it's ventilation / airflow restricted. I shudder to think what could happen to all of those expensive components if you happen to get a faulty water cooling system that springs a leak...

IME, it's usually either the HDD or power supply that fails. I expect we'll be seeing fewer disk failures with SSD.

Yeah I was thinking it was generally pc players so I got curious and made a poll.  I find PC gamers, no offense, usually hold higher standards and typically enjoy niche gaming.  I don't run into too many people that would rather have completely linear games except my few friends who play on pc.  They want everything to quick, efficient, and easily accessible, and they usually don't like anything in a game that "pads" the experience.  It's nice seeing a different view/preference from so many people.  I am curious how many of these die hard Mass Effect PC gamers will try out Destiny 2.  If the story is good like they are proposing, I can see it many of the ME fans gravitate towards that game because of the story, lore, and linear level design.  Although I think we are getting larger overworlds this time.

On the Scorpio, I think Xbox is a little out of touch but i like that they are trying something new.  Some will gravitate to it for the specs, but I feel like its the library of games and the community that ultimately sells consoles.  Xbox's library of exclusives has been lackluster, and Playstation's community has grown tremendously do to more community based games/online play.  I won't leave Playstation solely because of the people I play with.  The games are a bonus at this point.  Xbox lovers will stay for their community, but its never a good thing when there isn't growth.  Xbox needs that growth in sales and consumer base.  I don't see it happening.  I would rather get build a PC myself in addition to my playstation.  Mods intrigue me, and I want to learn how to do them to enhance games.

Are you saying that PCs got worse, or that consoles got better? (I haven't noticed either happening, myself)

Thanks. I don't see any real usability difference between W10 and, say, XP, myself. (Never bothered to upgrade to 7 or 8.)

Can consoles actually be maintained? My impression was that they work until they fail for good.

Oh....   Those memories of my first Amstrad.

Never owned a console.
