So I was playing Cyberpunk 2077 today when I hit pause for no reason because the game used up most of my graphics card power while my fans were spinning at a high speed. Then I went to make some food and watched TV, so I stopped thinking about it until I fell asleep. When I got back upstairs, the PC was still running on where I left it, with the fans still loud at around 70%, but my monitor had just turned off automatically. That really makes me nervous and I'm scared I might have broken something or caused damage. Is this worry actually rational? Or is everything totally fine anyway? Thanks so much!

That's so nice of you! It was just what I needed, and it makes me happy that it's true.

You didn't have a problem right after that? So if it's working fine, everything is probably okay.

There is a Norwegian streamer named Virtual. He plays a game called Trackmania all the time on his streams. Did you know? His computer never turns off, and it never closes down. It stays turned on forever. 24 hours every single day, 365 days straight. Even when he's not in Norway. And yet his PC is still working fine.
