Should I leave my computer on

Ive just bought a new compter, reasonably expensive with some good stuff on it.

Intel i7 -950 Chip

Intel DX58SO motherboard

8 Meg of 1600 mhz DDR3 ram

Ati HD5850 graphics card 1GB

Should i leave the unit on 24/7 as i have always read that thermal expansion cycles are the killer of electronics or just shut it down once per day when i retire to bed.
