My house is really hot, currently at 84! Should I not turn on my games in this heat? Central air, soon, I hope.

I have a bunch of games in my garage. I just don't play them in the winter.
It has been reported in several threads about playing games in the cold that tubes have been known to crack due to thermal expansion. The necks are a weak point and turning them on when it is very cold has been reported to cause neck failures.
I have not experienced this personally as it almost never gets that cold here in Houston.
I have had two monitors crack when the sun hit the faces of them early in the morning. I am presuming that they were still cool and the sun caused heating and uneven expansion. That really p*ssed me off. They were both really good touchscreen medium res monitors.
