I've been waiting for the 5000 series Ryzen 5700G and now that they are available. I want to upgrade Windows 7 Media Center to Windows 8.1 Media Center because I want to upgrade to 64-bit so I can allocate 2GB to the frame buffer to the APU.
Is anybody using the slightly older Ryzen 3400G or 2200G with Windows 8.1 or even Windows 7?
The alternative is to run Windows 7 my current image in a Virtual Machine.
Windows 8.1 compliance new processors

This is a bit old so sorry if too late, but If i recall correctly, the ryzen integrated graphics drivers will not install on 8.1. I believe I ended up having to put an old graphics card that I had laying around in my PC.
