1000W is way too much for this. Go for an 850W to save on power (you'll get better efficiency under load).

Internal sound cards aren't really amazing. Some are really good but not amazing. If you want great sound quality go for an external DAC.

For the RAM, go for an 8x8GB 3200MHz kit of your liking.

For the CPU cooler get an NZXT X61 or if you want better quality (and performance), an EK Predator (either the 240mm or 360mm one).

There's no real difference between 4x16GB and 8x8GB. Both would give the same amount of RAM, but 4x16GB would leave half the RAM slots empty, so 8x8GB would look cooler, and honestly at 64GB you'd probably change motherboard to one with DDR5 slots (when that comes out anyway) by the time you need more RAM.

Actually 4x16gb is better to be honest.
8x8gb could be quite problematic
a) there is really high chance for ram problems to occur, the more sticks you have the bigger
b) if one ram goes faulty, you will need insane amount of time to indicate which stick has failed
c) you don't gain anything from 8x8gb where you already have quad channel with 4x16gb
d) if he decides to water cool ram it would cost him a fortune to get 8ram blocks compared to 4

Well, thing is, much like the risks with AIOs, those are things that could potentially happen, not things that are likely to happen. There isn't a "really high chance for RAM problems to occur". If there were, professionals with high end workstations would be 100% fucked without ECC RAM. True, when you increase the number of sticks the likelihood of a problem increases, but the chance remains tiny whether you get 4 or 8 sticks.

True enough, troubleshooting which stick is problematic in the potential event that one is would be more difficult since you're dealing with twice the sticks, but really how many times is he going to have to deal with that if ever? Once in a couple years, maybe?

Point C is accurate, it's really only aesthetic benefit.

If he's doing a custom loop that includes the bloody RAM I doubt he'd have any issues with buying an extra water block and kit of heat sinks :D. Heck, even with 4 sticks he'd have to get two water blocks if he wants quad channel functionality, so you're only looking at 4 extra heat sinks.
