The Big Bad Jellyfish:
I'm still wondering if I should go with water cooling or air for my first build, I am planning to overclock.
Can anyone give me some pros and cons about water cooling and air for a first time computer builder?

For a first time build, definitely go with an air-cooled system.
Liquid cooling loops are more expensive than air, more complicated, and there's more room for disaster (if anything leaks, you'd better hope the fluid is non-conductive).
Acerblock:
Is liquid cooling better than air however?
Momentum:
in some cases, but for a first time build, i wouldnt reccomend doing a liquid cooling loop, just get some corsair liquid cooling system off newegg.
