There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to buy an amd.
Intel is such a difference for a small $100 price difference in a 2year++ investment, that make any amd processor obsolete. Only fools would ever buy amd.
Take it as you will.
The kinds of people who buy mainstream i7's or worse yet i5's now over ryzen are the same drones that bought Pentium D over Athlon 64 x2 in 2005

They're going to be on suicide watch over their shitty no threads processors in a few years, meanwhile back then despite how insane Conroe and core 2 duo in general were people sporting Athlon x2's were still getting by just fine up until mainstream quad cores and even up til Nehalem+
By then a Pentium D could barely render a 720p youtube video
Worth mentioning that thanks to increasing multi core support in gaemz, faildozer has closed the gap with the almighty 2500k in recent years when initially it was so far behind it wasn't even funny. I don't see how AMD is a poor investment.
