storing

So last year I built myself an expensive ($2k+) gaming PC. Now I'm going to be moving to a campus for around 18 months or more, where I can't bring anything with me. So I'm in the process of getting rid of my stuff, but a friend is going to let me leave a couple boxes of stuff in his basement...

I was curious if doing so would affect the life span or effectiveness of the product at all if stored like this overtime.

Hi everyone. I would love to hear your advise on the following. I am a grad student who built my own computer about six months ago. I am taking a year off to do an internship and I have two options for my computer. 1. Store in someones closet nearby in boxes for the next 15 months or 2. ship...
