Does VRAM speed affect video editing?

[Inyerbones]

I'm helping my brother build a PC that's used for 50% gaming / 50% video editing, and we were looking at either the GTX 1660 Ti(12Gb/s GDDR6) or 1660 Super (14Gb/s GDDR6). 

 

I was wondering if the 14Gb/s GDDR6 on the 1660 Super would give any benefit at all in video editing over the slower 12Gb/s GDDR6 on the 1660 Ti? Seeing how similar these 2 perform in gaming, if the faster vram on the 1660 Super does help out at all, we would definitely be going with the 1660 Super. 

 

*1660 Ti and 1660 Super both are priced the same where I live.

*Video editing mainly consists of 1080p footage and occasionally 4k footage but 4k footage editing would probably increase as time passes.

*For any creative work, Adobe CC 2020 is used. (Premiere Pro most of the time)

My memory is that the S is a 1660 with gddr6 instead of gddr 5.  The only benchmarks I’ve seen are for games

I'm aware, but i'm looking at either the 1660 Ti or 1660 Super and they both have GDDR6, not the base 1660.
