Welcome back to the good side.
Corporations aren't your friend. I like what AMD is doing right now so I'll buy them.
But there are situations like media servers where Intel is a better choice because its integrated GPU that can do video encoding/decoding at a much higher speed and lower watts than AMD.
Totally! My Plex server uses a 10th Gen i7 for exactly that reason. I just switched to an AM5 CPU for my main gaming rig though, and it is awesome! Only minor gripe is that it doesn't have Thunderbolt (doesn't affect me on that PC though)
