Hi all. I hope my question is in the right place. I am thinking of building pc around a Ryzen thread ripper pro 3995wx on a Pro-WS-WRX80E-SAGE-SE backplane (https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/All-series/Pro-WS-WRX80E-SAGE-SE-WIFI/), for film/video editing/colouring (Premiere and Davinci Resolve). Someone I know advised me not to go for any of AMD's processor as, according to what he told me, Intel Xeon processors are a much better choice since the have multimedia instructions hardwired into them. As what he told me sounds far fetched, I would greatly appreciate your thoughts and advice. My apologies if my questions in this post seem naive and/or silly but coming from macOS/macpros such choices are very hard for me. However, the way Apple is heading with their hardware forces me to look at alternatives.
Thanks for your time.
