Your list is reasonable.
I like the case and the seasonic psu.

Some suggestions:
Use a single ssd for everything.
The intel 660P m.2 pcie drive is particularly cheap.
If you can manage the 2tb unit, good. Otherwise buy the 1tb drive and defer on the hard drive.
You can always add one later if you need to.

The 3600 comes with a decent cooler. I would use that and see how you do.
I do not like an aio cooler when you have a good air cooling case like you picked.
I would add a pair of 140mm front intakes since your case does not seem to come with them.

If you want a better air cooler, buy any of the noctua coolers, they are quiet, easy to mount and very effective.
The very best will be the dual tower NH-D15 or NH-D15s.
The single tower...

Please stylize your post like that seen on this thread. We can move forward from there. Also, please include proper punctuation and spaces/paragraphs to aid in thread comprehension.

Your build looks alright but if possible we'd be looking at refining the build.
Im very sorry! i already fix it thank you so much!..
when you say refining can please tell me what i will change.
Please and thank you

The single tower units will still be sufficient.

My canned rant on liquid cooling:
------------------------start of rant-------------------
You buy a liquid cooler to be able to extract an extra multiplier or two out of your OC.
How much do you really need?
I do not much like all in one liquid coolers when a good air cooler like a Noctua or phanteks can do the job just as well.
A liquid cooler will be expensive, noisy, less reliable, and will not cool any better
in a well ventilated case.
Liquid cooling is really air cooling, it just puts the heat exchange in a different place.
The orientation of the radiator will cause a problem.
If you orient it to take in cool air from the outside, you will cool the cpu better, but the hot air then circulates inside the case heating up the graphics card and motherboard.
If you orient it to exhaust(which I think is better) , then your cpu cooling will be less effective because it uses pre heated case air.
Past that, A AIO radiator complicates creating a positive pressure filtered cooling setup which can keep your parts clean.
And... I have read too many tales of woe when a liquid cooler leaks.
Google for AIO leaks to see what can happen.
While unlikely, leaks do happen.

I would support an AIO cooler primarily in a space restricted case.
If one puts looks over function, that is a personal thing; not for me though.
-----------------------end of rant--------------------------

Your pc will be quieter, more reliable, and will be cooled equally well with a decent air cooler
like the Noctua NH-U12s or NH-NH-D15s.

Hello, first of all thank you so much for noticing my post and for that suggestion and that rant haha i was really planning to put a AIO cooler soon but when I read your rant i changed my mind real-quick . Moving on so you’re telling me to get rid of the HDD and put the 2tb (I will order it in amazon since my country don't sell that i hope its good) but my concern is that is m.2 pcie durable? I mean would it last a 5years life span or more I’ve read / heard that it also increase in temperatures . Enlightenment me please I dont have any idea
