The Zen+ APUs should be out soonish. Can find plenty of information about the Ryzen 3 3200G and 3400G, but no release date :P

Nothing stops integrators from using the 3xxxU parts and the old 2xxxG parts.

Regardless, I do expect G parts will be announced soon, too. 3 CPUs definitely isn't a full lineup.

2xxx series is zen+, also ops complaint was about current gen ryzen, which the 2200G and 2400G fall in to.

Those APUs are a weird mix between Zen and Zen+, they got improvements over Zen but they are not fully Zen+, and they even have some unique drawbacks (the TIM, they are not soldered).

Complaining about TIM on an entry-level processor seems... questionable.

I was just highlighting that there are differences.

Though that temps are higher because of that, resulting in more work for the cooler, is not ideal for a CPU that's apart from that great for a HTPC.

Ah, interesting. Thanks for the clarification.

2000 series is not zen+ when it comes to APUs. 3000 series is zen+ in APUs.
