You can't really say that it's bad, but on the other hand (depending on a fan quality, age, etc...) the fan can sometimes magically break so processor doesn't get cooled as it's supposed to and it overheats, so the computer crashes, or simply shows you a msg saying that temperature is too high..., bla bla bla and it will turn off in several secs, so you have to buy new fan (don't fix it, because it may happen again, but much more seriously.).
Some people don't turn off their computers for days, but I think that you should always turn it off for the night.
I know from my own experience about the fan thing. The fan leg somehow slipped(???) and hit its bay and fell down(as it stands vertical) and it would hit the graphics card if it didn't hang on the wires that were holding it, so I had to change the original Intel fan, but the only thing that fits on an original Intel processor is an expensive original Intel fan, and on an original Intel motherboard will only go an original Intel processor. That happened the second week after I bought my precious computer. You just can't comment about that. I wasn't crazy enough to buy everything original from Intel again, so I bought the first quality stuff I found and it's lasted for almost 2 years, now, up to today.
AnswerFor most computers, the fan is designed to be on all the time. The fan is on for normal usage, but when the CPU heats up the fan speeds up to compensate. However, if you fan is sounds like it is at maximum speed, then this is a problem.Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete (on a Windows computer) and check the "CPU Usage" at the bottom. When you are not using your computer for anything strenuous, ie it is just sitting, idling on your desktop, the usage should be between 0% and 10%. If it is consistantly high and idles at 60, 70+ % then there is a 'hungry' program using up too much of your resources. Select the Processes tab and look for the Process with a very high entry under CPU (nb "System Idle Process" does not count). Use Google to find out which program it belongs to and consider reinstalling the program to fix it. The other alternative is that is malware, in which case you should run a virus/spyware checker. Two decent free ones are AVG (http://free.grisoft.com/)/Microsoft Defender (www.Microsoft.com).
