    Not sure who’s down voting you. You’re right. There’s Heat pumps that can move 5x more heat than the energy they use. While a PC only gives you max 1:1

      I interpreted the sentiment from OP that it was just reframing the reality in either case: the server is going to run, and it’s going to generate heat.

      You can either frame that reality as “waste heat is being generated” or “my furnace doesn’t have to work as hard”
