AMD Threadripper disadvantages on Linux

As I am considering build a new system for xmas...I thought going the AMD for Linux as their CPUs are much cheaper than Intel, which makes quite a difference when going 8 to 16 cores....besides AMD threadripper feature 64 PCIe lanes which makes them perfect for dual GPU setups...
In a thread I saw that Resolve crashes when using Avid codecs since it needs Intel instruction sets...
Any other downside for 19xx and 29xx series CPUs under Linux?
thanks in advance
