Heat. Cost of electricity. Prolong life of components. Noise. You don't need it on at night because you're not downloading, folding, rendering, converting, etc. Pick one.
Recent computers are very power efficient. The process of turning off/turning on constantly probably consumes more power than just leaving it on, and definitely reduces the life of components. How does turning something on and off prolong the life of components? Makes no sense.
