I keep my computer on the floor.
Will it be safe with the floor heating...or will it do damage? |

The floor would have burn your feet before it damaged your case. |

It shouldn't get any hotter than it would on a hot summer's day. Hopefully, under your case there won't be an ondol hotspot. Besides, your case should have little feet to lift it off the floor.
The alternative is to buy one of those plastic supports which stop your case falling over and raise it off the floor a bit too. |

| I put mine on one of those little Korean tables. I know it probably doesn't matter, but it makes me feel better. |

| It won't hurt it, but it will add a little extra thermal load to your cooling fans. Again it's probably less than the difference between summer and winter, and your case should be on little rubber feet anyway. |
