Tech Tip: Seven Easy Behavior Changes that Can Keep Your PC Running Like New
These helpful tips can save you money and keep your PC in tip-top shape!

How long will a computer last? When do I need to replace my computer?
We get these questions often here at Facet, but it’s not easy to formulate an answer in most cases. There are no fixed rules here, as how long you keep a computer usually comes down to personal preference!
We can, however, offer some guidance on how to keep your current PC in good working condition. What can you do to extend the life of your computer? There are a few tricks that can help you extend the life of your PC, but it’s also important to understand that even under perfect circumstances, all computers will eventually need to be replaced.
- Leaving the PC on a charger 24/7: “trickle charging” (where the battery is charged a tiny bit each time it drops to 99%) can cause the battery to fail quicker. We recommend letting the battery drain partly before plugging it in to charge to extend battery life.
