I am extremely sensitive to noise. I also work from home, and I'm a severe insomniac as well. I swear by this fan, I run it day and night. My last one lasted many years, and I've just replaced it with the same model a few months ago.

Since your situation is extremely noisy, more so than mine, it probably won't drown it out completely. You might consider combining with a white noise machine like this, which is also very good:

Stay away from this product. The noise it generates is a nice quality, but the volume is very low so I find it unhelpful:

And then you could always add in ear plugs. For me they're uncomfortable, but when I lived in an apartment with a heavy footed large man that didn't seem to have the ability to sit still and a set of kids that ran around like fools, desperate times called for desperate measures.
And perhaps another conversation with the neighbor is in order.
Best of luck to you. You have my utmost sympathy.
So much this. I am essentially completely reliant on white noise to help me sleep now.
Some resources:
12 hour Youtube video of a black screen with the sound of a dozen fans running.
SimplyNoise, a very simple and easy to use white/brown/pink noise generator. Also has an app.
MyNoise, for those that really want to customize noise/sound scapes. Also has an app that you can use to take your custom sounds with you on the go.
Rain.Today, a natural rain sound generator. I can't listen to normal rain loops because my ear eventually pics up on the repetition and the anticipation of expected sounds causes me to listen actively. Defeats the purpose.
Just a good ol' box fan. Circulates the air and helps drown out those other, distracting noises.
most filters, you can clean and use multiple times. a thing i do when theres dust in the air (altho you probably have a ton more), is get one of those standard box fans (like the link below), and hang a damp/wet towel over the back of it. it acts as a pretty good filter, and the towel can be washed endlesly as needed. where do u live exactly?

95 degree ambient temp? That's fucking ridiculous. How do you even survive?
Just... watch your temps and stop playing games if they get to high. CPU shouldn't be over 85C, GPU can probably get up to 95C and still be safe since this is a short-term problem.
It's possible that putting a fan in an open window in your room and blowing air out could make your room cooler. It will pull air from other rooms and remove the hotter air that your PC is producing. But having the window open might just make your room hotter.
A fan like this: http://www.amazon.com/Lasko-3733-20-Fan-Box/dp/B00002ND67
is great for putting in a window.
Problem solved!
Just one window definitely makes it harder, but you can still get some circulation going if you put a box fan in the window.
I suggest turning the fan to blow out during the day, with the bedroom door open to allow air flow.
Then turn the fan to pull air in during the cooler evening/night.
you're better off not bothering with those little window fans like this , because they are pretty much always too weak to do any good.
Get a basic box fan like this , and just cover the window space next to the fan with a board or curtain or something.
