If you want a 100% efficient computer like me, all you have to do - and it's very simple!

Count all of the noise and heat as useful work.

I don't know if it is efficient, but the heat generated from my desktop while gaming is a nice substitute for a heater.

This doesn't work in Queensland unfortunately. Any tips for making it produce cold air rather than warm?

I'm in QLD freezing my arse off, however, you could pair the computer with a thermoelectric generator to absorb the heat from the computer and power it. However, that probably won't work and would be an infinite power hack. It wouldn't make the room cooler but not make the room hotter.

Edit: It's been attempted! https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9728234
