That 2400G looks great for a mini gaming rig, especially if one prefers to play older games over newer titles.

Yes, because there are no more than 4 CPU cores, 4 MB L3 cache, and 11 NGCUs on the Raven Ridge silicon. Unless one of these can beat the Ryzen 5 1600 in CPU performance, it can't graduate to Ryzen 7 branding.

Perhaps (hypothetically), a Ryzen 7 APU would be AMD's competitor to the Core i7-8705G (a BGA MCM with a 12 nm "Zeppelin" and the same Vega dGPU found on the i7-8705G).
TBF, they make 40CU APUs for consoles, AMD could make a bigger raven ridge if they wanted. Why they stopped at oddball 11 nobody knows.

Zen2 will probably bring us larger GPUs.

An 8 threads APU is the perfect solution for rpcs3, where you need both high thread count and a good IGP. It's a weird case, as the real PS3 shares half the RAM with the GPU and CPU, when emulating on an dedicated GPU, you have the PCI-Express+IMC+RAM link overhead, that is not a problem with an IGP.

Enjoy your Persona 5 at 4k.

If they have HBM2 onboard they would be about as good as an RX550 based on stream processors. That's good enough for another 400-450h/s in cryptonight. Would be worth it for the base CPU in a mining build.
I think the Vega with HBM(integrated) is reserved for Intel exclusively. Also HBM would make these APUs very expensive and miss the 170$ target for Ryzen 5 class price, maybe if AMD decides to launch a APU in Ryzen 7 family with more powerful GPU then would like to see HBM on that chip. It certainly looks like AMD is targeting Radeon 550 or 560 class performance which will make these APU very attractive for entry level PC builds.
