i dont think so, just your gpu temps may increase a bit that's it & fans are cheap you can get a good 120 mm fan under 10$ u can install it later and as i said earlier its good to have a side fan but its not a must to have there are lot of gaming cases with no side fan space instead a large transparent window..
