Confused on CPU Generations

[1apotheosis1]

Can someone tell me the if the generation of amd r3 3200g is 2nd or 3rd. I'm still new when it comes to this kind of thing

as indicated with the "3" in the 3200g, it is the 3rd generation of ryzen products. 

However, it is the 2nd generation of the zen architecture.

 

Referece:

1000 series = zen

2000 series = zen+

3000 series = zen2

 

Hope that helps

scroll down a bit and there's a beautiful table

Well that's correct for mainstream Ryzen but APUs are actually one lesser gen so for example a 3200g is built on 12nm.

Oh right.. forgot about that.. here is an updated one i guess:

 

1000 series = zen

2000 series = zen+

2000g series = zen

3000 series = zen2

3000g series = zen+

(4000 laptop series = zen2)
