Can you lay a PC tower down?

Hello, I have a desktop PC, quite a bulky tower.

Actually, I would like to lay the tower down to save space. But is lying a tower down dangerous for its operation? (like for cooling, for example?)
I already know that it poses a problem for the CD-DVD ROM drive.

Basically, is it risky to lay the tower down?

Thanks in advance.

    Hi!

    No, I don't think that "sucks"^^.

    As long as the air outlet (and inlet) of the fan is not obstructed, I don't think there are any risks.

    Hi

    No, there isn't any particular problem; there are in fact cases with 2 positions, standing or lying down.

    Even for CD/DVD players, you can place them horizontally or vertically.

    As long as the ventilation is not obstructed, as mentioned above.
