Default Is it ok to run Noctua SE1366 fans 100% 24/7?

I use a noctua se1366. I have the 2 fans in push pull 1 ran to the cpu fan header and the other to header next to it at the top of mb. I have mb fan control disabled so both run all out at around ~1300rpm. My temps are excellent and the fans produce very little noise. Is it ok/normal to these fans 100% all the time the pc is on? I normally use s3 sleep when the pc is not in use.

hey dank, i have a i7 920 C0 with the same noctua , but mounted horizontally. I have had mine running 24/7 for a few months now, shouldnt be a problem. What kinda temps you get with the 3.78?? im right around 75 loaded but still need to try n lower my voltages a bit. Currently have my vcore at 1.34 i believe and drops to 1.31 under load. A friend of mine has his mounted vertically and we had pretty much the same temps. Just wondering what others are getting , especially since we are at the same clock speed.

with prime95 cores are 68-70C max, with linx 69-72C max. I found mounting vertically with the air blowing out the 200mm top fan temps dropped 2-3C versus horizontal blowing out the back. I plan to OC higher and see what I can get when I get time, hopefully this weekend since I won't care if I trash my raid array cause I'll be installing a legit copy of window 7 rtm.

wow thats awesome a legit RTM of win7 ? Should i even ask how...? i heard a SSDs would go great with win7 . seen some intel 80gb for like 225 on neweqq, but i heard those are the first gen and they are trying to clear em out, thats why they so cheap.
