I used Intel PCs for many years and felt a bit unsecure when switching towards AMD for the first time, but I didn't regret it. Less power consumption, less heat and same or better performance than the equivalent Intel CPUs.
The days where AMD was something exotic and struggled with incompatibilities are definitely over.
The money saved on the CPU I rather invested in RAM and fast SSDs instead. I finally built my computer myself. That's not as difficult as it might appear upfront. Reviews of components in magazines and manuals help.
If you go for a desktop, I recoomend look for something quiet with sufficient room and connectors for expansions. Important for studio work.
