So I'm just starting to get ideas of building my first pc so I'm curious what's the pros and cons of going water cooled vs fans is one way better than the other what's the price difference anyone had way better experience with either or like I said I'm a brand new noob to this been playing console for years and I feel like I'm still years behind you guys so please give me your opinion thanks

I prefer watercooled. It looks really nice and sleek as also get great temps. While on the other hand, air is cheaper and can reach the same temps sometimes, I just don't like the bulkyness of them IMO

I built my first gaming pc late 2016. Most people go water because it's quiet and looks cool, but if it's your first build and you're on a budget go air. My rig is completely air cooled and honestly it's not loud at all plus it's easier to maintain.

EK mono block on CPU. Covers CPU power and CPU. And gpu's I have heat killer blocks. Zalman LQ1000 case. There are many good water cool companies. Water cool and EK is what I used.
