@cgartenberg I think you are muddling some things... There are Ryzen processors in the 2000, 3000, and 4000 series that use the tech from the prior generation.

The 3200g for example, is a Zen+ (12nm) processor in the 3000 series...

There are also Zen2 processors in the 3000 series. The processors you are referring to are Zen2 (7nm) processors that are in the 4000 series, that will land ahead of Zen3 (7nm+) later in the year... the article doesn't clearly explain this.

Mobile processors are always one generation behind. Mobile Ryzen 2000 was Zen, mobile ryzen 3000 was Zen+ and mobile ryzen 4000 will be Zen 2 (while Desktop ryzen 4000 will be Zen 3).

The reason for this is that it takes more engendering effort to always add the igpu to the platform.

I understand the why... Of course releasing what is a 4000 series as say a 3250X and aligning them, then releasing the number with tech would help... in any case, the point is the article muddles the details and makes it sound like these new 4000 series are better than the existing higher end 3000 series, and may mislead readers who don't know the difference.
