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'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

You're right, I should have been clearer: This doesn't work in Queensland, aside from the two to three weeks of jumper weather we get per year.

You must be in Cairns or something

Brisbane, but I'm also overweight so my perception of the cold may be skewed.
