The newer one from 2014 doesn't have any that I can see or hear and it gets quite warm, you can feel the heat radiating from it when you are standing close to the screen.

I thought about getting a fan that would plug into the USB port and taping it to a vent, but that would tend to load the set up with dust so I just left it alone. Waiting for it to die so I can get an OLED, but I could be waiting a while.
Fans do no harm, and most likely do good in most cases.

But I wouldn't get an OLED unless you are buying it for a theater room that will see relatively little run time. OLEDs replicate plasma pictures for the most part but have a shorter life than any display
