Turned my PC into an actual space heater (lemmy.world)

Installed a vent into the desk with a high powered fan underneath.

Figured we joked about it enough, but this thing keeps my office snug & warm throughout winter without having to expend a single extra cent in heating.

Ah, it’s always good to see a fellow Logitech Z-5500D owner in the wild!

    When we getting home inference AI water heaters as GPU coolers?

    Need to train a LoRA for a long hot shower.

    And what do you do in the summer?

    Leave the door open and point (another) fan at it from outside for circulation. It helps that it's basement level. Stays nice & cool in the summer unless it's 30°C+ for weeks on end.

    And yes, I'm an actual basement dweller. No, I don't live with my parents.

    Nice! I would've done it high on a side/back wall, just to not interfere with desktop space.

    In fact, I put a compressor fan in the top back of a desk cabinet for the same reason, and wired it to a USB plug so it ran from the power on the back of the PC.
