Dell 2407 temperatures

[a ronin]

Since summer is in full swing, my room has become unbearably hot. I think, in fact, I know for a fact that my monitor is putting out the majority of the heat. It's hot right above the monitor.

Does anyone else with the same monitor experience the same and have a solution?

I have the same monitor and it puts out some heat, but nothing crazy. If anything my PC feels like it gives off more heat.

I had two CRTs before though so many it just seems like less in comparison.


Solution? AC, Swamp cooler, fan?

PS: this sentence cracks me up. "I think, in fact, I know for a fact that my monitor is putting out the majority of the heat."

Reminds me of a conference I went to the speaker asked if we new how many computers we had at our onsite locations exactly. I raised my hand with a few others. He said oh really how many do you have. I said "about sixty" realized my mistake as the words were coming out of my mouth

Mine isn't that bad at all...

Do you have enough air circulation and space in that room? I noticed that having two windows or a door open usually helps to keep the temps much lower as well. sitting in a closed room in the summer is just wrong. get outside

I notice that my 2405 radiates a bit of warm heat from the actual screen. I sit close enough, that I can actually feel the warmth on my face in the wintertime. (about 1.5 feet away)
