Premiere Pro is good software for that purpose.  It even includes presets designed for youtube, which will reduce the amount of reencoding youtube has to do on your files, thus decreasing the time between upload and share, as well as minimizing the quality loss associated with sharing on youtube.

So the bit rate would remain good in that enough it looks good

Youtube has a maximum to which they will cut down anything you upload, but the less reprocessing they have to do to get what you uploaded into their format the closer it will be to what you uploaded and thus the better it will look.

Sony Vegas (if using AMD GPU), Premier Pro if using a GPU at all.

I would record them to separate files so you have options open for editing.  If you flatten your overlay with the game footage and save that, there's some things you just won't be able to do.

AMD is much faster in Sony Vegas (A R9 380 will be faster then a TitanX in that software) because the software is extremely well optimized for AMD.

 

What generation of AMD GPU do you have?

Premiere Pro and Vegas are solid, but expensive.

Hitfilm 4 Express, on the other hand, is powerful, free, and has the biggest collection of online video tutorials I've ever seen.

Oh, probably Premiere. Like Ryan said, it has features tailored specifically for YouTube content creators in that it uses a similar codec so YouTube doesn't have to process and compress the video too much.

YouTube always reencodes the same way no matter what.
