Before making the choice about whether to go with various Ram + SSD option, I strongly suggest you watch the review video I've posted in the first post of this thread.
The 16GB Kit comes with two Single Rank 8GB modules (Ram chips only one side of the stick) which reduces the performance by certain degree as Ryzen Processors benefits from dual rank memory.
My recommendation will be buying the barebone and then get your SSD and Ram. They're charging extra $150 for 16GB Ram + 256GB SSD configuration which you can buy yourself. 256GB NVMe SSD can be found as cheap as $30-$40 if you look for the deals and 16GB kit will cost $60-$70.

Thumbs up for Tech Tablets. I love the channel and his commodore tshirts. He does honest reviews.
Yes, his reviews are extremely unbiased and very detailed. I even informed him about this deal in his review video comments on YouTube and he also suggested to go for a Dual Rank kit and getting just the barebone from them.

Why are you thinking those Type-C ports are TB3? Is that mentioned anywhere? And it is a well known fact that AMD processors don't support any kind of Thunderbolt connectivity (3 or 4) till date.
And the Videos I have posted, check those out about how to add an external GPU using a M.2 PCIe Slot.
I'm not thinking they are. Simply confirming that they are not.
While AMD CPUs do not support TB3 directly, a few higher-end X570 mobos support TB3 at the chipset level. Please, do more research to avoid spreading misinformation in the future. Thanks.

With 64gb this thing would make a nice VM host for a homelab.
