(I’m taking reading lessons now…)
I think Intel will be fine. They have good products (and I say that as an AMD fan that has only built AMD DAWs).
AM4 is the previous generation socket from AMD and the top generation CPU is the 5000-series. So anything higher will not work on AM4.
AM5 is the socket for 7000- and 9000-series CPUs. It is also expected that AMD will release at least another generation for that socket so it should be a reasonable purchase.
