watercool your house, alternatively, paint the walls with thermal paste

I doubt that your room is hotter than hell. I have been there many times and I can safely say that it is damn near close to the temperature of the surface of Venus: a chilly 900 degrees Fahrenheit. 

 

On a more serious note: Open a window and put a fan up against it and use it to blow air out of your room. Air in your house which is probably cooler will rush to fill its place. Yay negative airflow pressure!

Take a bucket and fill it with ice, then point a fan at it. It's what I do sometimes.

Your profile pic fits perfectly with this thread.  :)

Welcome to Hell.

hellfrozeover.jpg

 

Hell, Michigan that is.

 

Like the others said, you might want to get a room fan, buy a portable A/C, or maybe open a window. You could just go liquid cooling or not wear clothes while gaming... Never mind what I just said there...

If you have the money then put a custom loop in your pc. Using water to cool your CPU and GPU will keep things pretty damn cool, plus water blocks on GPUs look sexy as hell.

Take bottle of water and put it in the freezer. Wait a while until it gets really cold then take it out. Take ventilation fan. Put that cold bottle of water in front of it and start that fan. Air blowing from fan will get cooled by cold water and that will also cool your room.

I have seen online a setup were their water cooling loop was routed under their house so a lot of the heat from their computer was moved out of the room and under the house as i recall. Other then doing that there really is little that you can do to reduce heat output from computer parts.

Nyhow, i'd reccomend you do the old wet towel in a chair trick, usually cools the room adequately or somewhat(atlest a bit better), since you'r problem is room temperature related not PC heat Related, either you exhaust the water cooler radiator outside through some vent or you

 

 

its the same law governing the matter subject if you leave your refrigirator open its gonna cool your room. Wrong!

 

somethings gotta give ! maybe a new powerful AC maybe? because thats the only thing logical if the side tricks dont work for you! the heat source in the room have to be vented far awy as possible, or check with your current AC manufacturer for defects on adequate cooling.

Details separate people.

Crack a window or install air conditioning are you only two real options.

I want to do something similar one day with a 3000L water tank or five outside. I used to live on a farm for a bit so it is possible. 

 

As for your room - window is the only thing that will be effective.

lol aftermarket cooling. The best watercooling system in the world would just efficiently move heat from your PC into your room. Open a window or get an aircon or something.

 

Or if you really want you could make a massive loop with the (weather protected) radiators outside.

well, when i had my duel sapphire radeon HD 6950s my room got close to 100F, and with my plans for the summer to get a second r9 290, it will only get worse, so my idea is to make a water cooling loop, but send the water to a radiator somewhere outside of the room im gaming in, in this case, my Ethernet cable goes threw a hole in my wall, that hole heads directly downstairs to the basement, so ill setup my radiator down there, and never have a hot room again  B)

I'd just open a window, if its already open, your room is too small.

Has been getting colder here in South Australia, last night it was 10*c in the house, played some BF4 for a while then my brother came into my room and didn't leave because it was 24*c in here :)
