[delavega]

saakin 1 year, ok naman. I just restart everyday pagkagising ko.

 

Oversized lahat saakin. HSF, Exhaust, Inlet, Video Card. My hdd naka tapat sa inlet na oversived fan. So far, ok pa sila.

what's the best casing for having a pc running at 24/7 na maganda ang ventilation?

[JayZip]

yeah...should be ok...just do restarts now and then plus room temperature should be at least 24 C...ideal is at least 17 C (for server rooms)...

lian li ginagamit ko way back sa philippines. the best casing kaso expensive. ewan ko kung available pa un. kasi 2004 ako last bumili nun

if you plan to not turn off your pc then get a small fan and point it perpendicular to the pack of the box. this way a strong air flow is always present at the back of the case. this will make sure that the hot air from the vent fan will be carried away upon exit.

 

if possible just open the case panel and point the fan straight sa mga parts. problem is, dust and insects can crawl inside.

 

we had a server running 7-10 daily for 5 years. hd broke down first. our present server was bought in 2003 and is working up to now.

we have a fan blowing at the back of the case since we purchased it.

ok lang naman.. yung iba talagang hindi pinapatay ang PC... just make sure na maganda ang casing na bibilhin mo (full tower) para maganda ang ventilation sa loob ng casing..

BAsta may proper ventilation ay ok naman BUT i dont recommend it.

just want to clarify lang po, if I plan to operate my PC 24/7, having a good casing, 2 case fans both exhaust (pag intake kasi inaalikabok e), and a good PSU will be ok naman po diba?

My PC is running 24/7 for almost a year now.

 

If it is in windows you need to restart it if it slows or pops some errors.

 

About the PSU, if you like 24/7 operation then go for a UPS "uninterrupted power supply"

 

But here are some advice

Be careful on adding fans on your casing. More fans not necessary mean cooler system.

Incorrect placement of fans will just increase it's temp rather than lowering it

 

Even though your room is air conditioned. Your hardware are taking huge amount of burden

You must consider not only the temp but also moving parts. Especially the HDD

 

In short running a PC 24/7 will shortens its lifespan.

 

Oh, I also want to add the it is only the CPU that runs 24/7 and not the monitor. (use the power save option of the monitor.)

A personal computer is not built to operate at 24/7, unless yours is a mainframe system and has lots of money to burn for the electric bill.

hmmm if you have an external cooling system or an air conditioned room, i guess it is possible. but in my opinion, i wouldn't recommend leaving them on because their parts are not exactly like the desktops that are for heavy-duty use (like for games in a LAN party to give an example). and the common problem i hear if that is done is that either the hard drive doesn't work or the screen is burned out.
