Can we leave our computer running all the time

[Elsie]

Can we leave our computer running all the time? Or should we turn it off every night?

I am talking in terms of lifespan of hardware peripherals and also there is no energy issues.

[darshit]

I don't think so leaving computer all the time is good idea. But if you have a hardcore cooling system like used in data servers then its ok.

I don't think leaving the computer ON all the time affects its lifespan. I leave my computer ON very frequently.

I will prefer No, because afterall its Electronics item, As it will run all the time
it may possible that the life time may decrease.

yes you can, because people working in shifts share same computer, but it will affect the hardware of your pc.
