Is it bad to leave a pc in a car overnight? The low tonight is 54F and I was wondering if it would hurt my pc and monitor to leave them in the car overnight.
 
i wouldnt worry about it unless below freezing or over 100

even then.. if its off sub freezing and 130+ shouldnt be a problem... ... as long as its temp rises and fall at the same rate as the rest of the car, you would only have to worry about it if it has a chance to generate condensation.. the chances of that are slim, moreso inside of the vehicle.. and if it dose happen, just take it out, move it indoors and wait about 30 minuets for it to dry out (pop the case cover)
 
Where will you be parking? :D

Don't leave it in the car - some opportunist thief might snatch it.
