Would removing the side decrease the temperature inside the case?


The case has one exhaust fan plus the power supply fan and two intake fans and one side panel intake fan.
 
Try experimenting and finding out. There's the potential for it to go either way, really. Perhaps with the side panel on a higher volume of cool air will reach the CPU.
 
For My System Yes
I Have 2 Rear Fans
One Blowin In
One Blowin Out
In Front Intake
