No, these chips only run at 150F even at room temps on planet earth. Most of these Bitcoin farms are air cooled even in temperate climates. Please, it's not that hard to keep microchips cool. Liquid cooling helps for massive, dense server farms in temperate climates. You don't need it if you're going to fun a farm in Antarctica. In fact, you may struggle to prevent the liquid from freezing. And you wouldn't need it on Mars.
By the way, "air-cooled" does not mean the air cools the chips. In fact, the problem is that the air near the chips gets warm, because the air absorbs the heat and acts as a blanket. Air-cooled means you are pushing the hot air away from the chip and bringing in cooler air. But the absence of air means the problem (or solution, depending on context) never exists in the first place, it just dissipates.
The thinner the atmosphere, the easier to keep cool anything. You need air to retain heat, not to dissipate it. Right, without the Earth's atmosphere, we'd lose most of our heat at night, nearly all of it, and we'd have deep sub-zero temps every night even in the summer, even though we're closer to sun by a lot than Mars, we're still on the outskirts of the habitable zone for a planet.
Moving air removes heat through convection, which requires mass. While air is a decent insulator, vacuum is considered a perfect insulator. That's why they put it, or very low density gas, between multi paned windows.
And the only thing you can do is move the heat because of conservation of energy. There is no other way to get rid of it.
Is it possible to move the heat into the stone (material that Mars contains) via metal bar digged into terrain? What about converting heat back into electricity?
