What alternative wouldn’t end up dumping it in your room?

  With a liquid cooler you could theoretically have the heat exchanger in a separate room or outside.

    Or add underfloor heating to the bathroom. My girlfriend might actually be happy that I'm gaming.

yeah no doubt. Interestingly, I have seen a water cooling setup that dumped heat to a massive outdoor radiator, but that was obviously a one off project. I'd say I was surprised by the amount of heat a gaming pc can generate these days but when you have a gpu that can consume ~ 400W and a cpu at ~ 100W, only so much my 'space heater that draws pretty triangles' can do, lol. I might look into undervolting this summer.
