Amd 5700u and fx8150 still going strong
I loved my FX cpu but I lived in a desert and the heat in the summer coming off that thing would make my room 100F or more. First machine I built a custom water loop for. Didn't help with the heat in the room, but did stop it from shutting down randomly, so I could continue to sit in the sweltering heat in my underpants and play video games until dawn. Better times.
You might want to go through the trouble of extending that radiator loop all the way out through a window.
Trust me, if the parents would have let me punch some holes through the walls to get rid of some heat, I would have.
