Yes, they call them APUs

An 8-core zen 2 APU is expected

Yeah, apparently the 4700G[1] has already been spotted in benchmarks. Basically their 8-core ZEN2 APU.

Yes, look for CPU models suffixed with “G”. Unfortunately typically only available on the lower-tier models.

These are a full generation behind, though. 3xxxG is Zen+, 4xxxG is Zen 2. Memory compatibility is substantially worse (the Ryzen 3000 / Zen 2 memory controller is very good actually, but severely bottlenecked by Infinity Fabric) and CPU performance is quite a lot worse clock-per-clock as well.

Ryzen 3/5 have variants with integrated GPU:

They make great stuff, but the value proposition disappears pretty quickly if you aren't building a gaming rig/workstation that already requires a dedicated GPU.
