Computer ?
Posted by Answers CommunityI bought a brand new hp computer over a month ago. Is turning it off every night bad for the computer or should the computer be left on 24-7. I have heard both ways. Any computer techs answers would be appreciated.

I leave my desktop on 24-7. The weakest part of any computer typically is the power supply. Leaving the computer on saves the power supply from the stress that occurs to power supply components during the in-rush of current when starting up. While I'm no computer expert I have been an electronics technician for 30 years and have repaired my share of electronic devices.
