AMD RYZEN 3 2200G

Hello I would like to buy a motherboard compatible with an AMD 3 RYZEN 2200G but I was told that on this motherboard I had to update and that I had to have another processor at AMD to be able to do that and I have been told that you are pre-empting it. May you inform me about this please.

If the motherboard you buy though, doesnt have on board graphics, you will also have to have graphics card so you have video.
