If I have a liquid CPU cooler's radiator over my pc case's only exhaust vent will that restrict the hot air from leaving the rest of the case?

I'm asking because I want to use a liquid cooler for my CPU but my case only has one rear fan mount.

obviously if it blocks the hot hair form leaving the case then while it will still cool the CPU, the lack of an exhaust would cause the rest of my components to heat up and I don't want that to happen 😆

 

if it helps answer the question at all I have attached a picture of the cooler I want to use

 

Thank you for the help

What case do you have? Usually, 120mm liquid coolers like yours perform poorly even compared to a stock cooler or a cheap air cooler, and are only useful in very small cases where other types of coolers can't fit.

here is a link to my case if its of any use. thanks for the reply
