My E6300 is currently at overclocked to 333x7(2323) and idle it's running at 22 cpu from MB, and 32 from core temp. my system is at 36C. I need to get some good circulation blowing out. I really need to get a NB fan then I will overclock much more.

Could there be a problem running it with fan speed disabled? or should it be just fine? I am now going to try runing stress tests and see what temps I get.

Getting 35-36 under load so far.

I'm running mine with fan control disabled too.. mine is EXACTLY the same overclock as well.. temperatures as shown by SpeedFan are hovering around 38-39 degrees under load..

One thing i noticed was going to F5 bios was a major improvement.. I couldn't overclcok for my life with a 7600GT and F3.. Also idle temps were upper 40's.. Going to F5, Gigabyte perhaps fixed the way they do calculations of these temps cuz i did nothing different and the temps dropped like 10 degrees!! and i was able to overclock in one go to where I am right now.. All stock.

I did also recently switch to F5, but my temps didn't change. Though it did allow me to use 333fsb. Before I had to use 314fsb or like 360+ because 320-350 was unstable.
