How loud is your system? I've noticed that many people have upwards of 7 and 8 fans. I don't really see why some people do it - for example, a friend with a relatively slow system has twice as many as I do.
About your AMD not getting damaged, I am not surprised because I have run mine without a fan before (that leaves only the PSU fan which doesn't affect the rest of the case in my setup, and also the piddly Northbridge fan) and absolutely nothing happened differently. My temperatures were not to bad either, stay below 40* C in idle and never going beyond 50* C.
