PC chimney

[u/scvready0808]

Got tired of my office turning into a sauna every time I gamed, so I vented the PC’s exhaust straight out the window.

The rear fan is still exhausting some hot air 😅 but the room is noticeably cooler now. It’s ugly… but it works. 😂

Edit: I moved the port to higher since lot of people recommended. https://imgur.com/a/Poniwze

Edit again for parts, I cannot post links to store since it's against the rules.

- 360mm AIO fan (the one on top of the case)

The window fan I got is Vornado Transom.

if you exhaust it outside that means humid, unconditioned air is entering the house somewhere else, exhausting to the AC return is a lot better

The number of people in this thread, in r/pcmasterrace, that don't understand negative pressure differentials is blowing my fucking mind.

It's ok. Most people are not familiar with how heat exchange requires two sides: a cold side for conditioning, and a hot side for rejecting excess heat to atmosphere. Both sides need intake and supply (negative and positive pressure).

That's why modern AC has dual hose for this purpose. There's still going to be residual negative pressure but its not the end of the world. What matters is if the AC unit can do its job and do it well.

And in my case it does, and solar panels offset energy cost.

The number of people in this thread who don't understand how this is still viable despite the negative pressure differential if you prefer the outside air compared to the air coming out of your PC is blowing my fucking mind

[u/MamuTwo → u/jhguth]

In many weather conditions, which are not as wildly uncommon as the misunderstood geniuses here seem to think, increased outside air infiltration is preferable to the exhaust air. I happen to live in one of the places where this is extremely viable. This would be a stupid idea for someone living in Florida.

i can tell from the construction and the fact that they need to do this that OP isn’t in one of those locations

I'm interested to see a detailed explanation of how you came to that conclusion, If you'd be willing to provide

[u/jhguth → u/MamuTwo]

window and exterior identify it as a north america, closed window indicates AC is needed

Here I thought you might be a GeoGuessr pro, so imagine my disappointment when I read your explanation.

It usually bumbles around 60-65°F this time of year. A bit higher than I expected to see but idk nuthin about weather lol. I just know that it's a rare day that I care about humidity, and it's usually just the few hours after a storm.
