Why don't you read the documentation (Garbage Collection at MSDN[^])?

Quote:
What happen when we create a unnecessary object and don't use it

'Unused' objects would be eventually collected (but, again, read the documentation for a technically correct answer), however 'create a unnecesasry object and not using it' should happen only to the drunk programmer.
