Forget water cooling if you can't decide on even the basics.
Something like the Intel Core i5-4690 for a CPU.
Maybe the Radeon R9 290 / 390 for video
Then pick a LGA1150 motherboard, 8GB of RAM, Brand name 600W PSU and a mid size case.
If you can afford it get a SSD.
Of course the best gear will change from month to month as prices vary and new products come to market.

okay I`ve made a list if the parts im thinking about, not sure if i am forgetting anything but here`s what i have so far any suggestions?
motherboard- MSI ATX DDR3 2600 LGA 1150 Motherboards Z97-G45 GAMING- my starting point
processor- Intel Core BX80646I74790K i7-4790K Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.40 GHz) - seems like a well rounded processor that will work with my motherboard
ram- G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM 3000 (PC4-24000) Desktop Memory Model F4-3000C15Q-16GRK- i looked and the motherboard will have 4 ram slots, can the motherboard handle these, and are they the right size
graphics card- MSI R9 390 GAMING 8G Graphics Card- as suggested
power supply- Corsair CX600 CP-9020048-US 600W Power Supply - not sure how this will effect my build, very open to suggestions
hd/ssd- Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-75E1T0B/AM) and a Seagate 4TB NAS HDD SATA 6Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive (ST4000VN000)- i'm not sure whether both of these will work together
case- Fractal Design Define S Gaming Case FD-CA-DEF-S-BK- looks amazing, dont know if everything will fit in it.
