Does the kernel in 17.04 fully support everything? Sometimes it takes a while to get support for new hardware in the kernel.

It's probably not a question of support, but rather bugs.

Processor errata, chipset errata, bugs in the Linux kernel, bugs in the compilers, and application issues. There is so much opportunity for strange behavior. It takes a long time to work it all out.

Intel has had people contributing patches for a very long time. AMD had better get a team on it, if they don't already.
