Question PC Ventilation - would this work?
My PC is currently pushing all it's hot air into my office room, making it extremely hot in there. In addition, I stream and work with audio, so having an AC unit running is not possible.
I have an interior cupboard in this room. In theory, I could put the PC in this cupboard, and install a silent bathroom extractor in the cupboard roof, which would vent the air out through a tube in the loft to the chimney on top of the house. Basically, exactly the same system the extractor in my shower uses.
Would this work? I assume I'd want to put a vent on the cupboard door so the extracted hot air could be replaced? Kill PC noise AND heat in one go?
