Since fans improve performance and longevity of computer components,can a fan on top of a monitor grill improve it's performance/longevity?

I dont know about monitor 'preformance' but it would possibly increase longevity. The reasons i would nto get one is mainly because of sound..I think that would be a bit loud although ive never heard one before

The fan should blow out,and be ducted.Maybe put a cardboard shroud leading up to the fan....Hmmmm,I think I'll e-mail some monitor companies and try and get straight answer from them....DawgTuff.

I have monitor fans on all my monitors. They make almost no noise and do a great job of cooling. I got them from 3dcool.com
