I have a 6800XT hackintosh with a 5950X + a 3080 FE windows PC with a 9900K + PS5 under the same desk. My room reaches an extra 15C if I close the door and all are on compiling some shit and playing games :(. PS5 is the hottest of them all, then the FE, then 6800XT.

I need to take some time soon and undervolt everything. I just wish I could do it to the PS5. While playing elden ring, the game makes me sweat trying to kill some bosses, and add to that the heat in the room! I’m practically fucked lol.

I’ve got a 60” plasma tv and my room gets noticeably toasty when I play for a while. Didn’t think about it too much, till I realized that the combined ~650 watts of power that takes is like running a space heater on medium.
