As long as there is good ventilation there is no problem!!!!!! May it will run upto its designed life cycle....

keep it as long as it doesnt show signs of heating >65 (esp while graphicin).

Else, let it run to eternity

As long as there is good ventilation there is no problem. I agree with tat.

I once had a cust who never turned off the computer for one good year. after which she has to due to black out in the city. It never started back ON.
We have to replace, Mobo, PowerSupply, RAM. Interesting and sad situation isnt it.

It can also be a disadvantage because graphics can make pages take a long time
to appear. These will take less time to display on your computer.And it will make the application to work slower.
