They are -20C until you drop a bunch of heat into them. Air works well because it's a fluid. And even as a fluid it's completely ineffective at cooling a cpu. You need to pair that fluid with a heatsink that creates massive surface area and a powered fan that is blowing in a steady stream of cool air to replace the air that has heated up. Even liquid cooling setups on earth eventually blow their heat into the atmosphere as the primary means of keeping the liquid cool.
