Nope. As long as your signal still gets through without timing issues, everything behaves fine.

You don’t really need any airflow there. The only thing that gets hot there is memory, but that is already cooled through the PCB (good heat conductor because of the copper), which is cooled by the regular heat sink.
The latency isn’t an issue, the timing becomes an issue because you don’t have a clean signal at some point, meaning the signal will arrive “spread out” over time. If it spreads to the next signal, your GPU isn’t recognized anymore.
But as long as.that doesn’t happen, there is no latency or performance decrease.
