It's all relative. I'd hate to have to replace my PC parts. But I've built WC systems for reactors sitting in high vacuum systems with ~100K$ of turbo pumps immediately below and tens of thousands of dollars worth of targets that have to be kept cool by the loop or they are trashed. That's quite a bit more expensive than the typical high end enthusiast PC. Not only that - if you fcuk up and kill your PC, it's a bummer and you replace it when you can afford it. Dump water onto a $50K maglev turbo pump and you just might get fired. WC'ed PCs are for the most part, a hobby.
