If you are going to do much video editing you would do well to look at 32 gb of RAM.
 
Does chopping up a YT vid really need 32GB? I'd double check on that before making the purchase. He may have been better off with 9900k and it's more cores/threads for streaming/editing?
 
Depends on the type of editing he's doing for Youtube videos, I guess. I've just always been under the impression that working with creative content like that is pretty memory intensive.
 
Some Youtube content is 4k. How much, I don't know. But it will likely be on the rise like everything else video.
 
video editing is one of the places an nvme pcie ssd can really help us, when used as a scratch drive, the samsung pro is the way to go here.
the evo and most other drives writes slow after a time, the pros will sustain writes for a longer time and give us a reduced, total render time.
 
if you can order your memory from newegg as 2x16gb ddr4 3200 and dont need rgb you can save about $100
it might help you upgrade your cpu or gpu. also price compare amazon vs newegg.
