Your mileage may vary, but it is a lot cheaper.

Box fan.

My idea for the ultimate cooling solution is taking two 20" box fans and, pointing them in the same direction, mounting the motherboard in between them. /s

I just use a $27 box fan and that knocks me ouch each night.

Behold! The Pinnacle of Cooling Solutions

This 609.6 mm Case fan is the only fan you will ever need!

Buy a 20 inch box fan such as this model.

Buy any 20 inch by 20 inch air filter such as these examples.

Get some duct tape and affix the air filter to the back of the box fan.

It may not look that pretty, but your wallet will be happy.

Have you thought about getting a box fan like this one?

You'll be able to leave the window open, get extra air circulation, and block the opening from derpy Evel Knievel dogs all at the same time.

1. The most amazing bed!. No explanation needed.
   
   
2. The perfect snack. It'll full your belly up and it's a light snack compared to sweet and savory stuff.
   
   
3. Cupcakes!
   
   
4. Elephant night light.
   
   
5. For my son, a box fan helps him stay asleep. If it's turned off in the night, guaranteed he'll wake up 5 or 6 times, with it on, he usually wakes up once, if that!
   
   Koala?
   
   She used to say she could taste sleep and that it was as delicious as a BLT on fresh French bread.
   

$27 for a 4" fan? He'd be better off with some of these, less noise and more airflow.

Oh, absolutely! I'm so glad this helped you. (I've got an October baby that's 5 months old now. It's a great month! Congrats!!)


Here's a bonus tip on peacefully quarantining cats: I came up with it because my husband and I had two cats who would keep us up all night, and if we shut them out of the bedroom, they would rattle the door and shred the carpet (in an apartment!!) until it had a big bald patch on it:


Shut the door and put a box fan in front of it. So easy! Here's an example, although I've seen them for around $20 other places


Some cats may not care... But this stopped ours from clawing under the door and making noise. They didn't like the air blowing in their faces. Also, bonus white noise! It was so simple, I was mad at myself for not thinking of it before permanent damage was done. Still, it saved us from losing our deposit on two subsequent apartments. :)

Have you considered one of these Holmes window fans? I've seen a ton of them at Goodwill, recently. Perhaps you could check your local Goodwill.

I have this Lasko box fan. It has a lot of power. It'll blow air, for sure. You aren't going to want to sit directly in its stream, though, or it'll dry out your throat and give you a headache. If it's cool outside, you can stick it on HIGH in the window, and your room will cool down in a couple of minutes.

If you need simple air circulation on the cheap, get a knock-off Vornado Honeywell air circulator. It'll move air around your bedroom fairly well. Just make sure you aim it across the room at a corner, like this.

You can also get a high velocity fan if you don't mind the noise.

this should do it Laptop Cooling Fan

but seriously, you want something with a mesh. The bigger the fan the more air it can push and be run quieter. Nothing short of running it in a refrigerator is going to make too much of a difference if it's caked in dust. Get a can of air and try blowing it out in the vents.

Here you go

premium cooler, not sure why it wasn't included standard in your build tbh, seems like a major oversight.

I am not sure I understand. Is it too hot in your room? Is the PC running too hot?

Just buy a box fan and makeshift something to make it airtight in your window.

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Lasko-3723-20-Inch-Premium-3-SPEED/dp/B000HHJ2I2

Or try a hanging fan: https://www.amazon.com/Wall-Mounted-Fans/b?ie=UTF8&node=11194456011

Personally - this is the best bang for the buck - Here

Like others have said, the lack of AC is only really a problem for the first 2-3 weeks and the last week. It's best to bring a pair of box fans (like so) between yourself and your roommate and set them on the window sill blowing in.

Pros:

• Tark-Mart (Boiler Junction). Holy hell the Tark-Mart. You can literally walk to a mini-grocery store in nothing but your PJs without going outside. Want 12 packs of soda? Got it. Donuts? Got it. Frozen foods? Got it. Milk shakes? Got it. Chips? Condoms? Shampoo? Office supplies? Candy? Power Aid? THEY GOT IT.
  
• Dorm-wide WiFi. Tarkington (at least in 2012-2013) was the pilot for a WiFi implementation of ResNet. If you're too cheap for a wireless router, this'll save you some money.
  
• Excellent community. Seriously, easily one of the best, most open communities of all campus res halls. Made some great friends in my time there.
  
• The CoRec is right across the street, making for easy workouts.
  
• Wiley and Ford, the two closest dining courts (within 3 minutes of the dorm by foot) are hands down the best on campus.
  
• ~10 minute walk to the Engineering campus if you hustle.
  
  Cons:
  
  
• The AC issue is probably the largest.
  
• The building is a bit on the older side, so don't be surprised when facilities (like plumbing) choke or get dirty rapidly. Then again, it is a men's dorm.
  
• The Boiler Special will drive up Jischke and N. Stadium every Saturday morning during football season, blasting its horn and party music. It will wake you up, I guarantee it.
