Hi guys,

What's your take on all-in-one? Any heating issue if operate for long hours, say 12 hrs a day--mainly excel spreadsheet and surfing net, no gaming.

My previous all-in-one iMac overheated all the time. There's even a slight burnt smell.

no, it will not over heat, for basic tasks however if you need service it is hard ( After Warranty expires) because everything is cramped into one casing + monitor

There will not be any heating issue as they have been optimized to run for long hours unless you are gaming.

AIO is just a laptop motherboard installed in the case of the monitor.

Does your laptop overheat?
