It looks like it comes with a standard cpu cooler unless you specified a bigger cooler?

In which case you'll need to buy and fit a bigger cooler which will involve pretty much dismantling the whole PC. Are you comfortable building PC's /fitting coolers?

Will the one that comes with it stop it being overclocked?

Not as such, but cpu temperatures can and will easily get out of control on a standard cooler, to the point where it'll limit you to such a small overclock it might not be worth doing without a bigger cooler..

The cooler would only stop the core from being overclocked as much as I would like but what about the card?
 
Watched a video its not hard to add a water cooled system but its up to my son to buy that now I will tell him what one to get then I will install it but to my original questions
