The CPU will overheat (safety shutdown usually happens at around 69 degrees C), and you will be unable to use the computer for prolonged periods unless it is running with less than 50% CPU usage in a very cool environment. Side effects of constant CPU overheat can include the capacitors blowing on the motherboard if they are near the CPU heatsink.

What happen if there is no fan in the motherboard?
If there is no fan on the motherboard, the system may overheat, as the fan helps dissipate heat generated by the CPU and other components. Without proper cooling, this can lead to thermal throttling, where the performance of the CPU is reduced to prevent damage. Prolonged overheating can cause hardware failures or permanent damage to the motherboard and other connected components. Overall, adequate cooling is essential for the longevity and reliability of a computer system.
