[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1632033, member: 56379"] I find that rebooting (or shutting down) occasionally can be helpful (for various reasons). But the more installed ram you have…the frequency of reboot/shutdown is less. This frequency also depends on how much you use your computer. A person using their computer 1 hour/day will need to do this less than a person using their computer 8-10 hours/day. I use my computers all day long (early morning till late at night). I reboot one of my computers (with 4gig of ram probably weekly). Another computer with 8gig of ram…I hardly ever reboot. This frequency can also be effected by how many apps you have open at the same time. I would say when you start seeing lots of "beach-balls"…probably a good idea to reboot.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
