Yeah, I've never heard of a Mac actually being damaged because of overuse, but it just stands to reason that you don't want your CPU running as hard as it can producing maximum heat with the fan blowing full strength for extended periods of time. Especially when all you're getting out of it is more frames per second... I know it's been debated on gaming forums etc, but if <30fps is good enough for StarWars, Matrix, X2, and LOTR on the big screen, it's got to be good enough for a few fish that are swimming around in the other room. I mean how many of us stare at MA for extended periods evaluatiing their smoothness, and even if you do, that fan has got to be more distracting than an imperceptable jerkiness!
