Never built a pc before

Hi,
Moving away from consoles.... Had enough of buying a new one every couple of years. Iv looked into parts and have finally decided on what to get but I'm unsure whether to build it myself or not as iv not done this before.
This build iv planned would also use a water cooler...... Is this a good idea for a first build or is this a Disaster waiting to happen?
Thanks for reading

Kind regards
Knoqulous

I was thinking about a custom loop to be honest, but have no knowledge on what to do . Thought I'd ask here for some advice first before I research the hell out of youtube.
Would it be good to practice connecting up before putting everything inside the case? I get that everything would have to be disconnected and dried before I actually put everything in
