Any AMD Ryzen 7 or Ryzen 9 Linux compatibility issues?

I'm still running an ancient Intel i7 4790 in my desktop, and have decided it's time to take the plunge and buy something modern. I'm considering a desktop with an AMD 3800X, 5800X, 3900X or 5900X.

Is anyone running Linux on any of the above? If so, are there any compatibility issues?

I've just installed Arch Linux on my Ryzen 3900XT based machine and haven't experienced any issues. I imagine you'll be fine as long as you're on a relatively modern kernel.

Thanks @jimmy1. I was even thinking of just going for an i7-10700KF (to play it safe), but I've been fascinated by Ryzen.

What motherboard do you have? What RAM modules do you use?

I'm running Arch too :)

The motherboard is an ASUS TUF X570-PLUS and the RAM is Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3000MHz. No problem with either.
