Correction: In AMD's official press material like the chart you are referencing above, Zen+ is synonymous with Zen 2. Many users online have been confused by the + in 14nm+, but this is a widespread error of misassociation. Now, there are some AMD fans online are well-aware of this difference, but colloquially or informally refer to the upcoming 14nm+ (now 12nm) refresh as Zen+ for ease of conversation. However, officially speaking, Zen+ and Zen 2 are one and the same.

"Zen 2 is the codename for AMD's eventual Zen successor (initially called Zen+)."

"The company has used both 'Zen+' and 'Zen 2' to refer to its next-generation die."
