The maker of modular, repairable laptops says it’s had to de-list separate memory purchases in order to keep supply for its pre-build customers, too.

    On the other hand, they already sell it so high I ended up buying mine without RAM. I found 2x16Go for 125€ vs 180€ sold by Framework 😅. Same speed, but I can’t compare CAS as Framework do not list them on their page.

    Edit : some source claims DDR5 5600 C46 for those sold by Framework, which is the same as the ones I bought. So I consider myself lucky, despite the price hike (the same kit was 65-70€ last summer)

      It’s the same with other vendors though. I man those that allow you to swap internals without losing warranty. Bought my laptop with just a 16g stick (base price/included), then bought 2x24g for the price one additional 16g module would’ve cost. And now I got a 16g module left over, too.

      Walked a friend through a build a month or so ago and actually ended up being cheaper buying from Frame.Work instead of from anywhere else at the time.
