Is it better to turn my computer off when I am not using it?
November 7, 2007
Computer plays an important role in our everyday life. Computer works electrically and you have the responsibility to take care of it. Here is one question that most of us have, “Is it better to turn off our system, when it is not in use?”
For this, no one can give the right answer, because it depends upon one’s usage.
Three situations may be applicable to leave your computer on even for a whole day.
• When your computer is connected through a network, some alterations have to be done by your network administrators, they may take back ups of the files up or upgraded some software or anything similar then you need to leave the system on for the full day.
• If your system is the main server in your organization and if others can work on the Internet and doing works through this server, then you want to leave the computer on the whole day. If your system acts as a file server, print server, web server then you must leave it on all the time.
Apart from this you may turn off the machine.
One main reason to shut down our computer is power consumption. A typical computer needs about 300 watts for functioning. Imagine if you leave the system whole day, and then calculate the power and cost. Switching off your system when not in use saves money and power.
Nowadays some advanced systems are in the market with energy-saving technology, which proves to be cost effective as well.
For some circumstances the mode of On and Off may cause stress to the computer components. If your system is On, the CPU gets hot, and then you shut down your system to get it cool. The expansion and contraction from the heat causes some disorders to your computer.
Depending upon factors such as convenience, power consumption, thermal stress and risk of power interruption, you should decide to leave the system on or not.
One thing you must remember is that regardless of your system being turned off or on, you must turn off the monitor at night for longevity.
