WHAT IS THE MELTING POINT OF CPU ??
My cabinet fan is not working and I live in 2nd floor and its too hot, my room temperture is around 35 to 37°C....I am running my Computer for atleast 15 hrs a day and nowadays the temperature in the cpu core reaching around 65°C .....Previously when the cabinet fan was working the temp was around (30 to 35)°C , I have opened the side panel of my computer case , I am using Cooler Master company elite 311..Cabinet , Can the processor melt...??? U CAN SEE MY CONFIG AT SIGNATURE.

Your flux capacitor will kick in and send you back in time :p 

that's not that high you should be just fine. do you not have a heatsink?
Is that at idle or full load? you really only need to worry of you start to go over 80

yeah... that's rather hot. Now understand an AMD cpu is sorta like a tank and kinda hard to damage. at the temps you're reaching it will start to throttle back. but it needs to be a lot hotter to be damaged.

that's not a great airflow case. Replace the dead fan, should bring the temps down.

Besides some performance degradation because the CPU will be throttling to protect itself that you cannot do a thing about but keep it cooler than it's throttling point, like ingtar33 says the AMD is like a tank and can take that type of heat, but replace the bad cooling fan would be the best solution.

It won't melt on you but that nasty burnt electrical smell will stink up your whole house when it dies! Jking! :)

If you are asking regarding an aftermarket CPU cooler the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO will keep it running very cool.

The coolmaster 212evo is the most bang for your buck. Do you need a heatsink or just the fan?
