I had problems with older (Intel) Mac Pro and usage of monitors on both HDMI and display port at once. That wasn't an Intel thing, and that sort of thing could happen with any hardware that isn't tested with every combination of other hardware.
I'm excited that the M1 is good, also- that it seems fast with everything, even the old Intel-specific code via Rosetta. I don't subscribe to Apple NIH[1] philosophy, but what they have made historically, barring the problem I mentioned above and a few macOS and iOS issues over the years, has been awesome. The M1 seems to follow Jobs' philosophy of making the best product.
