my room is always hot when while gaming on pc, and how do you get rid of heat, and not just blowing it out the side of the pc case

Exactly, the heat has to go somewhere. Even a refrigerator that cools food has coils on the back that produce heat, it's more of a heat transfer than just making it 'go away'. Air conditioners work much the same way, they blow cool air into the room and vent heated air out of the room outside if a window unit or outside if a central air unit. Either way it's a matter of heat displacement/transfer from one area to another. In the pc, it's from the heat source (cpu/gpu) to outside the case.

Either an air conditioner in the room or some sort of air collection tube gathering most of the exhuasted air from the pc with a fan to drive it out through a hole in the wall or through an open window.

Before talking about the room temperature lets think about the pc itself, how well is the airflow? how many fans do you have installed? (how many intake and how many outtake). Is your computer clean? (no dust in the case or on fans on the case and the components). Best to check all these things first, to keep the room cooler I recommend just cranking the windows open a bit or all the way. Do not use a fan whatever you do, in fact fans produce more heat than cooling. At first a fan pushes air, but after being on it begins to get hot itself and basically makes the problem worse.

First of all open your windows and keep the curtains/blinds shut (this will help stop the sun from coming in and heating up your room as much), make sure your room is cool beforehand as it will take longer to heat up. Also try and play your pc in the dark/with no lights on as common lights give out more heat than they do light! If you want your lights on try and get energy saver ones. Apart from that theres not much else you can do! Hope this helped.
