The HSF does look pretty basic, it doesn't even have heatpipes.

If he tidies up that rat's nest of cables he shouldn't have any probs getting a Freezer 64 Pro in there.

From that pic it looks like his rear fan is a 92mm. As you say, it's hard to be certain without a rear pic, but IMO it doesn't look like there's room for a 120mm fan.

Considering Seasonic are 1 of the manufacturers who make PSUs for PC Power & Cooling, I'd say they're likely to be a safe bet.
