fan? 

 

Ice blocks in a cooler with the lid open and a fan beside the cooler blowing the colder air around the room.

But when all the ice melts, i'll be refilling it. And making or buying in here is a bit expensive.

Sooo I asked my mom and she said air humidifier might be good. She's willing to shoulder the expenses. But, is a air humidifier good enough?

"Higher humidity reduces the effectiveness of sweating in cooling the body by reducing the rate of evaporation of moisture from the skin."

Honestyl though I would find a different spot to put the computer or adjust the case to push air out a window with hoses or something.
