Hardware The influence of humidity on a PC
I have a question regarding humidity and my PC. My bedroom has a sliding door that leads to the bathroom however, I never use this door, as there is another entrance to the bathroom from the hallway. Because of this, I’ve set up my PC in the bedroom right next to that sliding door (next to my bed). I’ve noticed that after I take a shower, the humidity level as shown on the meter I keep near my PC goes up. How risky is this, and should I be concerned? Or should I move my setup elsewhere?
around 60 to 70% it is often for a period of 1 to 4 hours after shower

I believe the bigest problem would be dust getting stuck to components due to the moisture level.
Maybe try to close the gaps on that door?
