Can I keep my CC on 24/7

Son93SL2 · 26-November-02, 04:47 PM

I just finished my new rig last night but didn't a drill bit big enough to make the hole for the switch so I just left the 2 CC on.

Is it ok to leave it on 24/7? How long would it last?

according to the coolerguys.com description of their CC products, the average life is 30,000 hours. So i doubt you will have any problem. But go ahead and install that switch, just for the pimpness of it!!

24/7/365 would be ok too.....CC's last longer than neons, and how many neons signs have you seen that are never shut off?

CC's are cooo.

Hmmm... I leave my CCT on all the time, but it's starting to flicker, and takes awhile to warm up these days...

I'm thinking I may need a heftier PSU in my AMD though...

Totally agree man. w/o the lighting it was sooo much slower. I also heard a tip that stickers will help increase speed...
