It is, but it works great for an air pusher. And it took me a while to convert to liquid. The cost and the worry about a leak frying the computer made me a bit nervous, but since they’ve introduced non-conductive cooling fluids, it’s a bit less nerve racking. Now if i can just figure out how to hook the hosing up through a ‘fridge or cooler to lower the temps even more…
