That introduces the nasty possibility of fan failiure leading to the chipset temp rocketing, which isn't good at all. I had it happen to my first pc, since then I've stuck with heat sinks instead. Once my stuff arrives back from Norway soon I'll be able to rebuild my old PC, thats got no cooling issues ever since it was rigged up to a vapo chill unit. the CPU usually ran about -50C
