Had enough opposing answers as necessary to completely dumbfound me

YES: "completely 'shut down' your new desktop periodically....weekly...daily...?"
NO: "with the newer/your current level of technology, it's no longer necessary to
'shut down' your desktop to prevent any damage/'freeze-up'/'tech-block'(?)"
fyi: seems this should be obvious; DO have a complete Security Suite installed.

Greetings, @TexasIndian,
I would suggest/recommend a hybrid solution: once you're done with your PC, choose the 🌙 "Sleep" option.
Hope this was helpful.
Kind Regards,
