Ryzen 5000G APUs Now Available
Ryzen 5000G APUs for the DIY market are available now, these had previously been announced. Until recently, these processors were exclusively offered to system manufacturers for integration into their products.
At the end of July, the chips were already available for purchase online from a variety of shops, but at a significantly higher price. The 5600G and 5700G are now featured in the product comparison at a price that is ten euros more than the anticipated recommended retail price of the devices. According to AMD, all models should be available starting today through online retailers and the company's own website. For the time being, the 5300G, which has four cores, eight threads, and Vega 6 graphics, will only be offered in prebuilt configurations. The GE versions feature a lower total power consumption (TDP) of 35 watts, making them less suitable for gaming PCs.
We reviewed both available SKU's here.

Sure they make sense. Maybe not with the stock heatsink, but people have put more powerful chips in ITX cases.
Nowadays, full ATX is rather pointless unless you have a beefy workstation or non-rack server. Everything is getting smaller, more integrated, and more efficient, where ITX is no longer some niche that requires a lot of sacrifices.
True but in my case I just want 1 chip doing it all without the need for a gpu under my TV, The 2400g is quite amazing for what it is but the memory situation even with bdie my pos 2400g can't even get past 3266mhz and 1400mhz core ideally I'd like something with the same core/shader config but with the efficiency and massive clock boosts to both the core and memory

5300G exisits, but its OEM only. So the only way to get one is through resellers on ebay and they are very expensive for what they are.
I would look into the 4000 series, the 4650G can be had for pretty decent prices and should out perform your 2400G by a large margin.

You can still do that. Something like a 5600G uses roughly the same amount of power as a 2400G, while being significantly faster. It's unlikely you'll need all 12 threads, so you'll probably see lower power consumption.
But, if better GPU performance is the objective, you're better off waiting for AM5. Getting an RDNA2+ iGPU on DDR5 ought to make a massive difference.

I'm going to be waiting now for the ddr5 or when gpu prices drop i can finally retire my gtx 1080 into my media machine and get either a 7000 series radeon or 4000 series nvidia

Yesterday they were plentiful in the US AMD Store at their MSRPs. Just checked a moment ago--still in stock at the MSRP's (5600/5700G's). Looks like the CPU shortages are abating. Still no progress on the GPU front, however.
