I did this with my first real desktop machine, I left it running 24 hours a day (along with the CRT monitor). It lasted a long time but the CRT got really dim after several years, due to the electron gun filament wearing out. I like modern hardware that isn't affected much by heat variation. No more CRTs or CFL monitors.

Yeah, the guns and the cathodes would stop emitting. Just Cathode-Ray things.
