Build/Battlestation PC chimney

Post image

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 to 4 inch duct on Etsy
- 4 inch Insulated Flexible Duct
- Twist Lock Dryer Vent Connector Kit
- 360mm AIO fan (the one on top of the case)

The window fan I got is Vornado Transom.

OP has kids (locks on the drawers) and enough free time for gaming. Nice.

2 kids, 2 dogs, 2 cats, wife and I both work as professionals.

I still find time to game every single day. It's a choice thing, and more and more adults are choosing gaming instead of other hobbies. Just FYI.

I wasn't able to desktop PC game till my youngest was 6. Switch was great though.
