Sounds like a two stage system dave.

The heat transfer section there covers the cooling methods involved well, and how they work on a basic level.
A 2 stage would keep your water loop clean and help prevent the water block from clogging. But a wet cooling tower can produce better temps, potentially cooling the water to subambient levels if the design is very good.
