This is my pc build so far and i was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for any parts.
I have not chose a cpu cooler yet and was wondering if it was better to get a liquid cool system or a air coll system?
I would prefer to have a air cool system over a liquid cooling system but i am worried about over-heating.

Admirable
Liquid cooling is for high Vcore voltages required to push the last 200Mhz out of your CPU.

Unless you really want to overclock to the max, buy a sensible air cooler for $35, and keep your temperatures below 75C by not increasing your volts so much.
Higher volts reduce the life of your CPU as well
