@MacCraker we need to get Linux spray. You know, it’s like big spray but in this case it keeps the pesty annoying and no one likes Linux users away from us
If you want maximum efficiency from your pc specifically a gaming one, use task manager to close all apps and make sure they are closed then use sleep that way you dont get the power surge and you arent using any ram
"You heard that turning off your computer for the night can be harmful for it" for the 25 years ive been alive and the 21 years of remembering my life i never heard anyone say this
The only way you can know if your computer has failed is to turn it on, but if it fails to boot, you don't know whether there was a hardware failure when you turned it off or when you turned it on, but either way, if you'd never turned it off, it would most likely still be working now.
I heard it’s better to leave a computer running constantly with a HDD. It is easier on it to keep running than to turn it off and start it up again. A hard drive only has so much spin-ups until it can fail. This is why some office buildings or other places leave them on 24/7 and can last much longer that way/
One reason for turning off modern computers is similar to the reason for storing data on external devices: You don't necessarily want everything to be connected to the network 100% of the time for security reasons. Also, if there is a lightning storm, make sure your computer is turned off and unplugged, and have a good surge protector as well. Another reason to store data on external drives that also works for cloud storage: Data backup. NOTE: This does not work for Windows programs and apps because they also have Windows registry entries that do not transfer easily if something happens to your main computer.
One recommendation I have for smart phone users is to go into your settings and set a auto phone off/phone on schedule. It minimizes certain charging issues if you charge when you sleep and lets the processors rest. My phone still runs great after two years and the batteries last days for general use.
If you get the right kind of UPS for your desktop, they often include software that you can install and a USB cable that will connect your UPS to your computer. The software can shout your computer off safely if you UPS is about to run out of power. It also gives you a way to monitor the power feeding your computer as well as different options that you can adjust to change the behavior of the UPS. I have one on mine that has a setting that I can either have the computer stays on as long as possible before shutting down or I can change the setting to safely turn off the computer if the power is off for more than 5 minutes. Most have a setting you can change the time. It also keeps a log of the power outages and how long the power was off. Most of these devices have an audible sound that occurs when the device switches to battery. You can set quiet times or even disable the audible alarm through the interface. I usually leave mine on all the time because I have my computers set to receive their automatic updates during my off times like when I'm in bed. All of my computers run Windows 10. My computers receive these updates too. But I have my computers set to restart themselves during the morning hours when I'm sleeping. If you do leave your computer on all of the time, restarting you computer at least once a week will help purge the memory as well.
Back in the 90s on IRC we used to flex our system uptime, especially if someone jumped on a server with years of uptime. These days I turn my PC off at night, unless I am specifically leaving it to run tasks while I am sleeping.
my classmate who uses her laptop for homework. always has put it to sleep and leaves it like that. I kept saying just shut it down. but she was like no ot takes to long to open back up .. by doing this she ruined her laptops battery and few weeks later her laptop broke completely... cuz she never turned it off for a whole school year .
7:00: Some UPS's have software that will communicate with the computer and shut down the computer if power is not restored within a specified period (or when the UPS has a specified amount of power left).
From a purely mechanical point of view it is not a good idea to leave your computer, especially a laptop, on all the time. Computers when powered on have fans inside which regulate temperatures to critical components such as the CPU and GPU. Fans draw in air and also dust which accumilate's on the fans themselves, reducing efficiency, and also on the heat sink of the components which need to be cooled and will eventually lead to a complete system failure and a very expensive repair bill - if a repair is even possible. As in the case of many Apple products. Some high end systems such as data servers are specifically designed to run 24/7 in an environment where they are also monitored 24/7. The average computer is not designed that way,
i alI always out it in sleep mode because it takes ages to turn on thx that help alot now i will turn my pc of so it can perform better on games please heart:)
I never turn mine off unless I am going to be gone for vacation or if we are expecting a tropical storm. During that time here in FL we have wicked lightening and that is NOT a good thing. My toy is tickin' along just fine doing this.
Mine is always on sleep whenever I don't use it, I only restart it when I start noticing it's getting slow. I only shut it down when I know I am not gonna use it for days. I have been doing this for so so many years, no problems, all is Gucci.
Well as a computer technician it's better on your HDD as keeping it warm is less likely to have HDD failure. When the HDD is cold it's more likely to fail when having to reboot when cold.
@@hamdovodokupaonik626 without doing the research could not tell you, been out of touch with computers in such a long time, and things have moved on a lot, so we'll out of touch with latest gear
@@Crusty9Ts i think back in 1999 people freaked out and thought it was the end of the world just because computers back then didn't support the 2000s on their calendars. That's Y2K in a nutshell.
Before I go to bed for the night I also turn my data off and close and log out of all my websites I've been on. And I will never get back on it until morning.
Im a fire chief and we had 6 cases of fires in the last 11 years where a computer was the course of the fire. I will always recommend people to turn everything off if they leave their home.
I use Linux. I never shut down the machine. You don't need to shut them down as the OS is designed to run indefinitely. There's been times my desktop machine has accumulated a period of 3-4 months of uptime between reboots and it will play steam games, movies, file serving and editing. I also have a laptop near top-of-the-line, but that one I do reboot all the time. Shutdown or not, it's not as big a deal with Linux.
0:35 It won't neccessarily damage it but it will accelerate wear on things like the on/off switch and the hard disk. The hard disk has to spin up every time you switch it on, and in that process uses far more power than just bringing out of sleep or hibernation.
In Armenia my homeland , power outages are common and because of that , Peoples desktops power supplies are getting broken and so because of that , everyone buys a UPS ( uninterruptible power supply ) ( sorry for my bad English )
Engineers have taken note of how inconvenient it is to close all the apps you have running, save and close all your work, and shutdown only to wait until the device boots when you switch it back on again.
Regarding a UPS a good one can last an you're or more if not too much drawing power, I use it for laptop and internet connection primarily and hand free phone. That lasts 2hrs +
My sister has a Chromebook and she would often get problems with it after a few weeks of simply setting it to 'Sleep' by closing the lid on the computer. I showed her how to find and press the 'POWER OFF' button on her Chromebook and simply turning the computer 100% off every now and then totally got rid of all of the problems she was having with her computer. The same thing for her Router, I showed her how when it was having problems that simply turning it off, waiting 10 minutes, and then turning it back on, would get rid of the 'static electrical charges' that were causing the problems in the thing. Just turning an electronic device off, waiting 10 minutes, then turning it back on, would often solve problems that device was having.
I bought Adele mini desktop refurbished quite a while ago. I turn it off every night. I also turn off the modem and I have found many times more than not. Then when I come back to it to turn it on again it’s in standby mode not power off mode it does it all by itself. That’s why I turn the wifi off so nobody can get into it.
Suspend doesn't move anything, it's already there. Also, on windows at very least, it is actually called hybrid sleep (it copies ram to disk, then goes to sleep, so if power is lost, it can still be resumed)
Hibernation does not keep your computer on. It turns your computer off and saves your session to the memory/RAM. Once you turn it on again, it will restore your session.
Brand new build 3060 i710700 has the same issue as my old build 660 i74770 no parts shared both do not boot half the time although my fans spin and my keyboard gets lit up but does not boot, I run a designated 20amp power outlet directly connected to my pc and have had an electrician test and show my outlet puts out enough watts
If you leave your PC on all the time, It's a good idea to restart your computer from time to time, which can fix Windows problems and clear memory.
usually i leave it 24/24 or put it to sleep. i restart it every 7 days and it had no problems for 3 years.
