AMD Ryzen 5 3580U or Intel Core i5?

Da

I would like to get a new laptop for my studies (psychology) and would like to get the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 (15 inch).

There's the model that I would like to have with Intel Core i5 (1,449 euro) and AMD Ryzen 5 3580U (1,029 euro).

Now my question: would it be worth spending (so much) more on Intel or is AMD almost as good?

I will mainly write a lot of texts and work with Google Drive / Open Office / PowerPoint etc. So now no elaborate image or video editing and of course everyday things like emails / Netflix / YT.

Unfortunately I have no idea about it and everyone says what else would be better.

Can someone give me a recommendation and why one or the other is better?

Take the Ryzen model
