I've got a big Acer PC, and after gaming for just half an hour, my room feels like a sauna! My air conditioning isn't helping much because the thermostat is in another room. In winter, I could just open a window to cool things down, but it's summer now. I'm considering getting a standalone AC unit that could vent out through my door since my windows aren't suitable for traditional units. I'd love to hear any suggestions or solutions you might have! Thanks!

A box fan can help circulate air better in and out of the room. You might also want to improve the efficiency of your PC components. Venting an AC out the door might not be very effective. Can your windows open at all? Some AC units have small vent hoses that could work with any window that opens a bit.
Honestly, the best way to deal with this is to move the heat out of the room completely. If you can’t vent it out using fans or ACs, consider relocating your PC to a different space altogether.
I can give a box fan a shot, but I usually keep my door shut. My PC needs to run at top performance for other tasks, not just gaming. I was also considering making a custom exhaust attachment for the portable AC to slide under my door, but that might be impractical since my casement window opens outward.
