AMD Ryzen 5000 Mobile CPU Lineup Leaks, based on both Cezanne (Zen3) and Lucienne( Zen2)
With Ryzen 5000 for Desktop now in line with the mobile part numbering, let's talk just that, the mobile parts. You'd think the Mobile 5000 series will be based on ZEN3 compete as well, as it turns out, that might not be the case.
From the latest leak it shows Ryzen 5000 mobile series would be based on both Zen 2 and Zen 3 processors including the AMD Ryzen 3 5300U (Zen 2), Ryzen 3 5400U (Zen 3), Ryzen 5 5500U (Zen 2), Ryzen 5 5600U (Zen 3), Ryzen 7 5700U (Zen 2), and the Ryzen 7 5800U (Zen 3). Confusing right? These brand-new processors will maintain the core counts of their Ryzen 4000 predecessors while gaining a modest bump to base and boost speeds. AMD is suspected to formally announce these processors in January with prices slightly above previous generations.

Casuals will not even know what they are buying 99.9% of the time. Only us enthusiasts really know what we are buying or not.
This is not an issue for us but most buyers will be confused at a simple naming scheme.

I don't see a problem here.
What's the difference if the system has a Zen2 or Zen3 CPU if performances are similiar?
It's not that Zen3 has more features or better compatibility than Zen2, it's just faster... so a downclocked Zen3 will roughly be as fast as an higher clocked Zen2, period, no difference for the end user... unless the end user is an enthusiast... enthusiasts will pick latest tech no matter what, but should also be able to buy the right CPU without being confused by naming.

Why is this so confusing, AMD. Why?
In the end, the move to 5000 series for all chips based Zen 3 is a friggin' bust.

its kinda annoying to us folks knowing this stuff but also kinda makes sense, a bit like 3100 vs 3300x, zen2 mobile is already better than intel anyway, would there be any difference to the user if they replaced the zen2 parts with lower clocked zen3 parts? they will get the same performance either way(presumably thats the goal), but doing this they can hopefully offer a more meaningful discount for the lower end parts
