A high performance computer cooling system having electrical power generation, which utilizes heat generated by servers to simultaneously cool the high performance computer, and generate electrical power. Taking into account the design of the high performance computer and cooling allows heat to dissipate actively or passively, which by design permits a turbine to rotate thereby generating electrical power from a generator. Using the fundamental phenomena of compressed hot air rising and cool air sinking in a cyclical approach is a force multiplier using the heat energy of the high performance computer against the natural use of elevation temperatures.
