my 2 cents.
Where are you reading those temps? Insocket sensor? If so, then i've read that the air movement created by the fan is refreshing the air near the sensor, and thus giving a lower temp . With no air movement whatsoever the sensor reads the temperature of the hot air trapped under the cpu.
... And you're cooling the pin organic bed (or whatever that's called) with the fan. Or...er...hmmm.
