Id get 32gb of ram, it really speeds stuff, esp in after effects where it stores frames in ram

 

 

 

Looks good overall. 

 

What is your plan with the drives?

I'd say up the RAM as mentioned above. Seems solid though. I would also suggest a GPU with more than 1 fan

Would they thermal throttle with only 1 fan? Premier pro isn't very GPU intensive though...

I haven't personally tested that in premiere I haven't rendered anything in premiere in a good while

It won't thermal throttle with one fan. Those cards are very low power.

So whats the benefits of a 2-fan card?

better at overclocking, but it won't make a difference for your use.

Yep, both Premiere and After Effects eat up memory fast.
