It’s a little weird to talk about Framework “launching” a new laptop given it just makes the same machine over and over again. That, of course, is the point, since it’s building a fleet of modular, upgradeable and repairable machines that eliminate unnecessary e-waste.

Framework will ship six- and eight-core Ryzen AI 300 processors on lower-end configurations, most likely the Ryzen AI 5 340 and Ryzen AI 7 350 that AMD announced at CES in January. These chips include integrated Radeon 840M and 860M GPUs with four and eight graphics cores, respectively.

Meanwhile customers who already have an older Framework 13 with a previous-gen Intel or AMD processor can purchase a new Framework Laptop 13 Mainboard with a Ryzen AI 300 series chip and use it to upgrade an existing laptop by giving it a new processor with Zen 5 CPU cores and RDNA 3.5 graphics.

Framework has done it again — it’s built a new AMD-powered modular computer that fits into any previous version of its 13-inch laptop for $449, or that you can buy as a brand-new laptop starting at $899 for DIY or $1,
