House fan on CPU good or bad ?

[abCasPeRR]

I have a hyper 212+ cooler. Right now I get kinda high temps while playing the cs:go beta, and one because my A/C isnt working at the moment so its kinda hot in my room. I wanna know is putting like a small desk fan pointing on the cpu good or bad ?

Thanks.

It's ok, for a while, at least. Dust is really the main concern.

Nah, it'll be fine. That's what most of us use.

Ok thanks, and one more question im actually thinking about adding the other 2nd cooler fan to it, but i dont want to get it if it doesnt really help

The extra fan on my Evo helps by about 3-5C under load over just the single fan, and no difference at idle, so take that however you will.
