I don't think it'll hurt if you do.

If you use a TRUE, Tuniq or similar cooler there is okey to use it, no air flow interference.

I did use it as it gave additional cooling and brought down the heat on my NB. I donīt remember how much lower it was.

I run my NB between 1,41 and 1,71, depending on how hard I push my memory and to get me the lowest possible tRD and right now Iīm on water on my NB and itīs never above ~35C even if I push 1,71 throu it.
I'm using a Tuniq Tower and I noticed that I can't even fit the fan because of the cooler. I'm hitting 70c+ on the NB and I'm only using 1.35v. My ram (Corsair PC8500 2*2GB) can't run at the default speed, maybe it's because of the high temperatures?

Here's a pic of my setup: http://www.onionen.se/pub/kik/IMG_7249.JPG
