Every night, I put my computer to sleep. But should I be shutting it down every now and then? For example, maybe once a week or once a month?

Just curious to see this question answered from a Linux gamers’ perspective.

    I just leave it in sleep mode and reboot after an update that requires it. I usually only turn it off completely if I’m going to be away for a day or more for a trip or something, in which case I generally cut power entirely. But for the most part it’s always on, just in sleep mode.
