    Central air - PC

    It's hot. The fact that the air vent is located right in front of windows facing the sun makes it very inefficient. The window temp with the blinds drawn is well over 100°. What I have in mind may sound crazy.

    I want to cap off the vent and run 80mm or larger hose up to my desk. I want to make a junction box, beside my PC, as a "waste gate" that supplies my PC with cold air while supplying my face with a cold breeze (adjustable). I can run 80mm hose up to the hole I cut out for my fan and remove the fan.

    The temp at the vent is a very cold 55°, but by the time it makes it out of there, it is confronted by 100° heat from the windows.

    Could this cause problems with my computer (temp extremes)?

    My PC is running 10° hotter than usual now.
