So I've done this.

Years ago, probably 10ish. The fan on my GPU crapped out. Rather than deal with trying to mount a new one, I took the side of the case off and blasted everything with a box fan.

The only real downsides I'l can see are dust, noise and perhaps over pressure on sensitive components.

Dust being the big one. I never really had a problem tho, nothing a can of duster every month can't fix.
