Why not build something to take care of the noise as well? They used to make those "sound-proof" boxes for printers and noisy servers... surelysomething like that would be easier to manage.Get a $15 bathroom exhaust fan and $20 of plywood and hardware, and build a box to put your machine(s) in. Talk to the audio geeks about what to use as sound-proofing, and you could probably both cool down your room *and* make it quieter.
Every bathroom exhaust fan I've heard is noisy. Seriously. Spend a few dollars more and use a couple 120VAC 120mm biscuit fans and you'll have much less noise, especially if you get ball-bearing fans.
I keep working over a design for a built-in desk and work surface for the home office, and putting all the computers (save notebooks) in forced-ventilation, filtered cabinets, possibly with an exterior exhaust vent (though I hadn't considered that part until today.)
