I am not a gamer so asking, AMD CPU better than Intel?

yes, especially if you are not a gamer.

AMD has better multi threaded performance (in some cases double that of intel).

Intel still has some lead in single threaded performance, and some vector optimizations.

So for general use case amd is better, but there are some specialized cases where intell still makes sense.

Specialized cases such as high end development or servers?

It doesn't matter if you game or not. AMD is crushing Intel on every dimension w.r.t. consumer and HEDT CPUs. Just look up the benchmarks.

Are there any driver issues or conflicts with other HW?
