I would be on the same side to get Kingston or Crucial or Corsair RAM rather than OCZ. OCZ may work on general laptops, but Mac is hard to say.

Running videos on Youtube should not generate enough CPU load to run the fan at full speed. In that case, I run Macbook Pro and Macbook Air on Youtube and they are fairly quiet.

PM me and you can bring in the notebook to my store, and I can request to have the fans and thermal paste replaced for you under warranty. Parts ordering will take about 4-5 business days tho, that means you will lose your laptop during that time.
