"Hookah bad for Computers?" ?

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

Just don't do it near your computer or in side.

You mean like being near a computer?  I would say the are probably bad but I bet a little better.  Hookahs don't put out as much particles in the smoke so there would be a bit less in your system, but you will have to clean it WAYYYY more often.

You should be doing that outside anyways. Indoor air quality isn't the best to begin with.

Tabaco is Tabaco... I quite frankly think they are just as bad as each other

 

But its a different type of smoke

 

"Hookah bad for Computers?" ?

 

Cigarettes gunk up your computer.

Just don't do it near your computer or in side.

 

Ok

Hookah? Is that another name for a Sheesha? 

Ya :P

 

haha.. for you yes, a computer? No idea.

Darn...

Yeah I'd take it outside man.

But that's...outside....do you know how often I go outside? Whenever I walk to my car....

 

 

For clarification, is it bad for my rig if hookah smoke gets in it.

Not really, you just have to clean it beacause the heatsinks/rads will get filled with more dust and stuff

Any contaminant in the air, including moisture is not good for computers.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

na you'd just have to clean it more often is what I'm guessing.

Tobacco is worthless in life. Thats all you need to know.

just because you don't like something, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone other than the user, why do you care. It's not really a big deal.

Big multi quote

My PC does not smoke, nor do I. Brandy is different.

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

I know it's not any of my business but smoking is basically paying money to slowly die.

There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Smoking anything near your computer is bad. Tar builds up on every square inch of the internals and everything gets disgustingly sticky. It's basically impossible to clean properly, and can cause issues if you leave it long enough with any maintenance. Don't smoke near your computer, and consider a better pass-time.

What? Some of you have been brain washed so bad its actually comical.

 

Smoke is smoke and a computer has no lungs, so whether you were to blow cigarette smoke or smoke from an organic piece of wood grown in an organic garden its smoke and unless you added spit to the smoke its as inert to the computer as regular air and will not clog/gunk up your computer. Yes, your lungs are a different story but again your computer has no lungs. Everyone remembers Slicks oil cooled computer right? Why is smoke worse than oil? Or do you think Slick used some kind of super pure oil that was better than smoke? Your computer will be oblivious to smoke, but it will smell like it if you do it all the time, so maybe some nice herbs from a Hookah is preferable.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

there's plenty of ways to die. more likely to die in a car accident than due to hookah yet i still drive. im not an avid smoker by any stretch of the imagination but a cigar or two a month MAYBE.
