i’m already tired of people losing their minds over the soldered ram, as if it was in framework’s control or that socketed ram could even compare to this… modular ram at this spec is coming but it isn’t ready for this generation of chips. if you don’t have a need for the insane vram just don’t buy it, or get the case and build your own standard ITX system. no one else is providing this chipset to desktop users or running at its full tdp and framework made it available, i cannot find the problem.
Durability with soldered cpu and ram? Wtffff
I’m looking forward to somebody building a cluster with these and running a full size DeepSeek R1.
For about 26.000€ you can get a cluster with enough RAM to run it. For comparison, a single Nvidia GPU with 80GB VRAM costs about 21.000€, bringing the total cost to about 400.000€ for just the GPUs to run it.
I was looking forward to a small replacement to my gaming pc. But the cost is wayyy out of my expectations.
I could get a very nice matx build for that budget.
Could you make something similar at the same size though? Small form factor PC’s have always been expensive.
Think of the minecraft servers this bad boy could run
I wish they had gone with an even smaller Mini-STX format like the AsRock DeskMinis but it’s still cool.
