Now a days I strictly make sure to turn off the computer after some time. I heard that it's not good to turn PCs off and on too much. I usually keep my PC on at all times, but put it in sleep mode when I'm not using it. I hear it's safer on your PC to start up from sleep anyway. 14 hours ago, Lamarr the strelok said: I'm with ya Kane.

Whenever my PC gets pretty loud, I like to calm it down on the strenuous activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact you regularly shutting down the system is good. Atlesat 4 hour worth of shutdown is good for both desktop and laptop. Keeping it always on is never going to help it's performance.

I suppose it wouldn't hurt to shut down at night going forward. It doesn't take too long to turn on anyway, so I could always just turn it on in the morning when I wake up. Easy peasy.

skyfire Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 It's like motors running inside the fans, you can't run them forver and expect to have good performance. you shut down such fan motors and sensors regularly for their performance. In fact hibernation and sleep mode is not good considering it is keeping the machine in a state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
