In fact, it will have no effect.

Explanation:

Vapour pressure is a function of temperature. Water has a definite and measurable vapour pressure. Of course, at 100 C, its vapour pressure is equal to 1 atm. Why?

So in your example, if the temperature is constant, the vapour pressure is also a constant.
