Technically you don't need a fan, but the choice is yours. If it was my CPU, I wouldn't be happy unless there was a heat sink or fan on there. I'd say that any 'sensible' Amiga owner would use one or the other.

Hi
Do you have a link for a heat sink, i might use for it?

There's thermal conductive sticky pads you could use instead of super glue in the corners and thermal paste - have a look on eBay. The heatsink doesn't have to be large, but put dead in the center. You can buy heatsinks with these sticky thermal pads already attached, just peel back the tape and stick on firmly to get a good thermal connection. These thermal pads are supposedly not as good as the paste, but would be more than sufficient in this case.
