No, the cooler is still too tall. Consider getting a different cooler? Arctic Esports would fit in the spec 01 and will give you better results than the evo.

The 212 Evo fits in every case mentioned so far. The spec listed on Corsair's website for the case is conservative and doesn't account for the side panel bump. 

Here are some examples: 

Spec-01: https://pcpartpicker.com/builds/by_part/hmtCmG#e=644

Spec-02: https://pcpartpicker.com/builds/by_part/hmtCmG#e=455

Spec-04: https://www.amazon.com/CORSAIR-Carbide-SPEC-04-Mid-Tower-Gaming/dp/B06XTPNCMM

Despite most reviews stating otherwise, my hyper 212 evo did fit but just barely so.

It's an old design that isn't very space efficient. Why are you looking at Corsair cases in particular? Are you putting an existing system into a new case or planing a new system? 

If it's the latter, I recommend planning the system as a whole in the New Builds and Planning subform after reading this:

Yes, an open air graphics card cooler will exhaust heat into the case instead of out the rear like a blower design. It shouldn't change the cooler choice though.

Will it impact the performance in a negetive way

It could mean slightly higher temps for the cpu and other system components but an open air cooler is generally better than blower for graphics card temps.
