Should I turn of my PC everyday or put it to sleep mode?

Is it best to completely shut down my pc everyday or is it better to put it in sleep mode rather than turning it of and on every day?

Temperatures and electricity usage are the main concerns here.

 

Since you're leaving your PC on overnight, it has to keep going, therefor has to generate more heat, and thus works harder. If you have an air cooler, this shouldn't be a problem, but an AIO or a custom loop would certainly feel the effects faster.

i prefer to leave mine on all the time and occasionally, put it too sleep at night but i usually never turn it off. As for as life every time it turns on technically you get a little wear and tear out of your mechanical hdds and fans but other than that its just personal preference if you want to leave it on or not

I just sleep my beast when I don’t use it and only ever shutdown/restart for updates.
