Do we really need air?! (Week 4)
Air is extremely important in all aspects. Imagine, it’s a
hot summer day… your air conditioning went out, you open all the windows to keep
from overheating; allowing the gentle breeze to travel and flow through one
open window to the other. Giving you the necessary airflow to keep your house a
smidge cooler and to help circulate stagnate air. Similarly, this can be translated
into airflow in computers.
Why is airflow in computers crucial? Having proper airflow helps
keep your computer cool and improves longevity. Afterall, the hardware sits
inside a box all day… it would start to get hot and overheat if not for having
the necessary airflow. Some things to think about in terms of your computer’s
airflow are fans, vents, and hardware placement. All of these can play a role
in keeping your computer running smoothly and efficiently.
Ideally, you should always maintain and ensure that your
device has the necessary airflow to run properly. To do this, you should make
sure the vents and fans are clear of any obstructions and clean them regularly.
This can ultimately, help to extend your computers life and ensure great
performance.
