AMD is the worst for stability. I need stability on my machine and Intel has no competition. I tried many benchmarks for rendering.
AMD with 64 threads and intel with "only" 32. Well, AMD took more time to render and heat up way more, while intel was way cooler and faster. The AMD trend is all smoke since most software (and games) rely on Intel architecture. I agree with not buying only on Amazon, actually my components were bought from some place in Europe (the gpu is from germany for example). You can't really disagree about someone to hire. It's better to spend like $50 for someone to assemble a PC than breaking a $350+ component. The price I wrote include taxes (22%), because I bought everything from a store, so don't count that +22%
I guess we both right, its the story of when two people look at the number and one sees 6 others see 9 and they debate who is wrong who is right. I am in love with AMD, some people prefer the iPhone over Android and so on...
Regarding hiring someone to build for 50$ its wise idea if you are scared to break something but again from my own experience its 2020 and there is nothing hard to assemble PC.
If you are building PC only for gaming then go with Intel as single clock speed matter in gaming. But again it depends on the game. Some strategy games work better on multi-cores...
Regarding AMD overheating I agree here more cores = more heat. Just buy a proper cooler and play with clocking.
Regarding stability it depends on you cloaking setting and drivers. Maybe some components were not fully compatible, maybe your CPU was overheating.
Regharding Intel was way cooler and waaaay faster. If it was faster it wasn't waaaaay faster. Your human senses would not notice a difference in CPU speed. If only you are talking about lower end AMD and higher-end Intel.
