My room is on the sunny side of the house. In the summer I gnash my teeth and shit and piss myself because my computer keeps my room 10 degrees hotter than anywhere else in the house. In the winter, I smile and laugh and dance with cherubs because my computer keeps my room 10 degrees hotter.
Modern hardware is incredibly power hungry - to squeeze marginal gains out of hardware they’re being pushed to the power hungry side of operation. On the high end a 5090 and an intel 285 / 265 is 825 watt TDP nominal before other hardware.
On that note, you can significantly reduce power consumption by undervolting your hardware. Everything is overclocked out of the box.
If you have a powerful enough inverter - problem’s more cooking yourself as ~1500 watts is a space heater. In the winter it’s 2 for 1 though.

The cycle must continue, same as it ever was.
I mean just because you live in a camper doesn’t mean you don’t have grid access. Most people moving to these are living in a park with RV hookups.
1500W? A PC while gaming should be closer to 500W, right? My GPU and CPU together don’t pull 300W and I can play 2k 100Hz

I wouldn’t expect someone living in a trailer to own a 5090.
Yeah, my Ryzen 5700X is undervolted, I was thinking about undervolting my RX6800
You should be using a heat pump instead of a space heater anyway, though.
