Monitors kept overheating until I noticed a simple airflow problem

I ran dual 27 inch monitors for about 2 years and both kept shutting down during long gaming sessions. Finally took a look behind the desk and saw the rear vents were only about an inch from the wall, basically choking the airflow. Moved the desk out 4 inches and it's been solid for 3 months now. Anyone else deal with heat buildup from cramped setups?

My friend had the same issue with his console until he realized it was sitting inside a closed cabinet.

Can't believe you let that go for two whole years
