bro! Its not the amount of time thats gonna make ur processor slow! But, if the processor’s temperature is high, u might land it in trouble! But as u say u hv used a table fan for its cooling! So its ok I suppose! Another thing, try to clean the processor frm inside after 2-3 weeks! It helps! U can do it wid the help of a hair dryer, or a vaccum cleaner! But dont touch anything, u might damage the motherboard! Evrything else is fine, conguratn is quite gud!
