Is there a question with this, or is this merely a statement?

Rly? AMD?? Well i guess that's your opinion .... maybe you like amd chips....

I want AMD because AM4 will be supported until 2020

It looks like the rest of your parts should fit well with your planned upgrade, don't forget that you will need to order an AM4 adapter for your AIO since the socket is different.

Well i dunno go with whatever you like :-) (because if i like intel does not mean every one does...)

Right now the Ryzen's are better price/performance and better at multi-core/thread performance at a given price point. While Intel has higher per core performance and better pure FPS in games. Although Coffee Lake closed up the difference between Intel and AMD on the multi-threaded performance it is still not quite there especially on a price per $$ basis. 

 

So for now it really depends on what you are doing and in gaming it depends on what resolution you are gaming at - for high FPS 1080p Intel is the king, when you get to 1440p or 4k it becomes much closer and more GPU bound, with the high end Ryzen chips pulling close to the high end Intel chips to the point of not really being a noticeable difference. For streaming while gaming, or doing heavy multi-tasking work loads I would prefer the R5/R7 but mostly due to the price/availability.

So in simple words as i say, intel delivers better performance than amd but it is over priced and amd is still cheap compared to the amount of performance it delivers

 

Not quite because it comes down to what workload you are doing. Intel delivers better FPS in games at 1080p, and in single threaded programs due to it's higher clock speeds. However for any program that takes advantage of multiple cores or if you are running more that one multi-threaded application at a time then Ryzen shines and beats Intel hands down.

You can't simplify the differences in how different CPU architectures perform into a meme
