If there were to be use of wide spread compute furnaces, it would have to be designed in a way that can be cheaply mass produced. I'm picturing PCBs with hundreds of ASIC chips sticking out of it (like a slotted processor of yore)

Litecoin (scrypt) mining ASIC I used to possess:

Not far off.

I've been heating my place with a computer for years now. During the winter, I have to add heating only during the coldest days of the winter. For the rest of the time I can have heating entirely turned off in a room with computer. Not exactly "innovation" then...

Tiny room I take it?

EDIT: Also, how cold are the winters where you live? In recent years they've been milder and milder, but we usually have at least a week with about -30ish.

Yeah, it's rather small room. It can get pretty cold, up to -15°C during winter, but isn't extreme like on far northern hemisphere...

How many watts?

That one did draw about 800 watt IIRC.

To put it in context, you're average electric furnace starts at 10kW. Mine is 18.78 kW @ 208v to 25 kW @ 240v. You'd need 31.25 of your boxes to match my one, 40-50 year old furnace. The design has to fundamentally change for it be feasible.

Says the one without system specs, boo whoo...

It would be nice to take that thermal energy and recycle it back as electricity

Oh noes! I'm going to cry because someone on an internet forum is calling me out for something irrelevant to the conversation. Ah, the 1# back track for trolls who can't actually come up with an argument.

Welcome to ignored, so Where are your system specs at?

Exactly mate , i started an actual thread here to discuss distributed computing based heating as just heating a wire element seams a bit old school to me as does burning stuff for heat, i Have a 1000 watt version

It's not a requirement to have system specs dude. Especially if not asking for tech support.
