A buffering means for a water-cooling system is capable of buffering the volume expansion and pressure generated by heating a cooling liquid. The buffering means includes a tube that is formed into a rectangular pillar. The surfaces on both ends of the tube are provided with an inlet and an outlet respectively. The tube is provided thereon with a plurality of side faces. Each of the side face is provided with a metallic sheet that is recessed toward the interior of the tube under normal temperature. When the cooling liquid absorbs heat via a heat-exchanging action, the volume of the cooling liquid expands due to the increase in temperature. Further, when the internal pressure of the water-cooling system is increased, the increased volume and pressure of the cooling liquid may push the originally recessed metallic sheet outwardly to increase the internal space of the tube, thereby adjusting the internal pressure of the water-cooling system timely so as to protect the structural integrity of the water-cooling system.
