I'm thinking about picking up this small liquid cooling kit:

I am a bit reluctant because I have an attractive but cheap cost and cheap quality mid tower case:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811353061&cm_re=diypc_zondda_orange-_-11-353-061-_-Product
The cooler is branded as something that can even fit smaller cases.
At first, I couldn't even envision where the radiator and fan would even go.
After watching a YouTube video of the installation, if this would fit at all in the case, I would remove the fan on the glass side panel (or the fan on the back of the rig, if the dimensions will fit) and install the corsair fan there, then put the radiator on top of it.
But would there be enough space, with the video card in there? Without a fan on the side panel (that wouldn't be there to cool the interior but for the radiator; but I'd still have 2 case fans on the front on back) could I risk overheating the motherboard?
I am doing this to reduce the noise from the heatsink, and to also be able to overclock my FX-8370 further and/or get a more powerful AMD chip, which I think, mandates liquid cooling past the 8370.
Will this kit fit into this case, and will everything work out well?
Thanks!
