your pc has been running for over 27 hours without turning it off. you're downloading a game and still have plenty of time left—possibly even a day. temperatures look normal, gpu readings are between 39-40-41 and cpu is around 50-48. the psu doesn't seem overheating. it's safe to keep it on for now, but monitor it closely.

Keep it quiet about the systems that keep the internet running smoothly for long periods. It's perfectly okay.

Nothing will occur if I keep it for another two days?? I’m really struggling financially right now due to the pandemic, and I can’t afford to risk damaging it.

The machine has been running continuously for eight years. As long as it stays well-cooled, everything should be okay.

They say it's a myth, but computers don't require shutdowns. The information is clear at 5:18.

Typically, most computer components are built to endure (my friend hasn’t shut down for a week).

The size of the game you're downloading isn't specified here. Could you provide more details or clarify what you mean?

It's not just a single game—two 50GB copies are downloading, and my internet is really slow. I think I'll leave it on BeF4 and go to bed.

I understand what it's like to experience poor internet connections.
