Laptop not used, is it worse or not?

I have a question if you don't turn off a laptop or does it get worse, so slower or not?

Sh

If you don't do anything with the laptop, nothing changes in the processor or the RAM. The only thing that could change is the operating system that is getting older.

So if you leave it on, it gets worse because it exceeds its lifespan.

If you put it away without a battery, if possible, don't do it unless you do it for months or years, then the battery is over without charging.

Has no expiry date.

Seriously, realistically speaking, it is better to run an electrical device at a constant temperature. So there's no thermal stress (warming up / cooling down).

So it's all a question of consideration.

Batteries are an extra case.

Well, especially by not switching off, a PC slows down. Now and then you should shut it down so that the RAM can be emptied. And yes, even PC parts have wear, just no mechanical parts.

Nope But it will wear out faster, so the moving parts such as fans, etc. Are more likely to break, and the ventilation slots are more likely to become clogged with dirt, which could cause the device to overheat and break.

Ok can you clean it up somehow if so how?

Di

Yes, with a vacuum cleaner on the ventilation slots. But only set the suction power to half power, not that you suck something ut

OK thanks
