I'd really wish for an AMD motherboard.

The new AMD chips with the RDNA2 is a Linux user's dream. The open source support is incredible.

I thought that the latest Alder Lake CPUs pretty much catched up with AMD in terms of general performance nowadays. And Intel's iGPU support was rock solid even before AMD.

Not really no. The power draw and heat on these chips are nearly 3x the AMD variant.

Th IGPU is substantially better in the new RDNA2 chips, also power draw.
