That case supports a CPU cooler height of 155mm maximum according to here.

The NH-D14 is 160mm so I'm afraid it won't fit.

Would it be better if I leave the side panel open?

I wouldn't recommend that. A closed case keeps dust out (assuming you have dust filters on your intake fans) and ensures a steady flow of air over the other parts in your system.
