When I upgraded my PC decades ago, it didn’t even have a heatsink. Just bare ceramic. Fans weren’t really a requirement until the Pentium era, or maybe the late 486 era.

There was some crossover, there were a few Dx4 100s that shipped with small fans and some pentiums were passive cooled even up till the Pentium 2’s.

Some people even scoffed at fans for noise pollution, the arguments were kind of fun to watch at the time.
