so i noticed today, that my little brother PC was running without connecting the cpu cooler, which is intel stock one, hes using i3 9100, and its been running for like 5 or 6 hours without any problem, after i realised that, i check the cpu and i didnt see any burns or anything, how could that happen ? im surprised.
EDIT: the heatsink was applied but the fan wasnt connected.
