If you've run out, don't just think "Oh the fan'll do the job fine" BECAUSE IT WON'T. Buy yourself some thermal paste, such as Arctic Cooling MX-4 or Arctic Cooling Silver. They're very cheap, and will keep your CPU cool.
The heatsinks that comes with intel and AMD processors already have applied thermal paste to it, which works fine if you aren't going to overclock the thing.
