I have a P3/550, slot 1
the cpu fan is noisy, so I remove it
but I am not sure about heat sink

What will happen if CPU overheat?
What damage will be done to other computer parts?

BTW how effective is a fan?
If max room temperature is 35 degrees for a CPU with a fan,
then, max will be decreased by how much if the fan is removed?
