If you have to have the side panel off to get stability, you have a bad cooling system. Your system should really be cooler with the side panels on than off, if you have a good cooling setup. Install more or better case fans and such, as posted previously.

Also, make sure all the cables are tied up and off to the sides, so they are not obstructing air flow.
True, but having the side off works as an interim measure. I have one case fan (120mm) which moves a lot of air, but I guess it's not enough. Either that, or cables are interfering since I do have a few of them sprawling around...
