I tested the Intel BE200 and the Qualcomm NCM865 using the EnGenius ECW536 and these are the results that I got.

In a nutshell
Qualcomm: better support for amd, no support for linux
Intel: support for linux
Other than that it is too early to tell because drivers continue to be developed and it's still early days for wifi 7

From my tests, Intel wifi 7 chip currently do not work with an AMD CPU on Linux. Qualcomm does work with a manual blob pull, but drop under load.
