The Missuss wants very badly to retain our somewhat dated TV cabinet as a home for our newly purchased, LG OLED TV. My concern is the tv will get too hot inside the cabinet, as airflow / dissipation will be restricted. I've read these tv's can fail sooner if they operate too 'hot'.
Am I being too cautious?
My thoughts as to altering the cabinet to increase heat dissipation:
> Cut vent holes in the back panel ( unseen when the tv is mounted inside, might help a bit )
> Install some fans on the back panel to pull heat from the interior ( too noisy? )
The top of the cabinet must remain intact for her display requirements, thus direct venting from above isn't an option.
Your thoughts, as always, are much appreciated.
