Absolutely not! A processor needs a reliable cooler to function properly. If you pushed it for two minutes, even briefly, chances are it’s already damaged. Remember, not all motherboards can handle temperatures above 99°C, so the real heat might be higher. Curious why you overlooked the BIOS alert about the fan not being detected? It’s likely you thought running without cooling was safe.

CPU temperature is tracked by numerous solid-state sensors embedded in the CPU silicon, enabling readings well above 99°C for functions like Turbo Boost and Thermal Velocity Boost.

It's accurate that temperature readings after 99°C may not be very trustworthy.
