Framework’s first tiny Desktop beautifully straddles the line between cute and badass

Framework, the Standard Computer Company, has just announced the first desktop computer, something that you did not need to do at all – but I am happy with that.
Partially because the world needs more 4.5 liters ITX mini computers, partly because it is used The most powerful APU is the most powerful AMD ever (Strix Halo) with some actual gaming slices and up to 128 GB of uniform LPDDR5x memory … and partly because it looks this.
Yes, you can create your front panel from among the 21 septic tiles (3D printing freely), choosing your front entrance/output, and blessed this mini -size standard panel below, along with a dedicated thermal system that has been involved in developing it By Cooler Master and Noctua with standard fans 120 mm, which is a sharing in the flexible power provider 400W Flex ATX by FSP, a full set of perfect cables, apparently for a relatively cable light system, your choice of black or transparent side panels … and on the left, handle holding the optional local network party!
Just not looking for any memory holes – it’s with welding. “We spent months working with AMD to explore ways about this, but we eventually decided that it was not technically possible to land in the standard memory when highly productive with a 256 -bit memory carrier,” he wrote a framework.
Below, find a closer look at the Framework and Cooling Mother’s Office Panel; You can get the PCIE X4 port only, not PCIE X8 or X16, and there are no old connectors like SATA, but it has been downloaded more than the image it provides: Framework says it got 5 GB per second of Ethernet but two M.2 2280 NVME SSD holes for when It reaches 16 TB of storage, Wi-Fi 7, in addition to what appears to be two Full USB-A Ports and headphone socket (back).
Here is a little construction, as we told us the photo framework:
Here are some of the best pictures of frameworks for the desktop surface governorate, in the composition installed on the pregnant woman, which the company expects that some fans of artificial intelligence Ryzen Ai Max Plus 395 Plus Config.
“With the desktop work frame, you can run giant and capable models such as Llama 3.3 70B Q6 at the actual time conversation speed directly on your office,” the company claims, adding “with Ethernet USB4 and 5gbit networks running larger models like Deepseek R1 671B full. “
Framework Nirav Patel says it was also designed with LAN in mind – although with less than the largest part of the huge Moniotrs and old desktop computers.
What kind of gaming slices may really have? My colleague Antonio saw his time With the ASUS Z13 game tablet The Strix Aura revolves around the performance of the Mobile Nvidia RTX 4060 chip. Frank Azur was the Amd Gaming Archist, with about 1080 pixels in high settings; It seems that you cannot play the most demanding games (such as Black legend Wonding and Starfield) At more than 60 frames per second in the original accuracy with the back of everything, but the claim is that up to 1440 pixels in 60 frames per second with the lack of FSR from AMD.
Even if you do not get the value of your money from artificial intelligence, the prices on these desktop computers are not all strange. Although a desktop contains 16 core units for the CPU, 40 graphics cores, 80 MB of 395 plus chip storage, and 128 GB of memory will cost $ 1,999-not including your storage And OD-One- You can choose one with 8 CPU costumes, 32 graphics cores, 40MB of cache and 32 GB of memory for $ 1,099. There are also 395 plus with only 64 GB of RAM for $ 1,599. Or you can buy a major plate on its own for $ 799 if you provide your Mini-ITX condition and the power source as well.
If you are looking for the strongest Mini-PC, Patel suggested that the 1999 model is positively compared to the Apple Mac studio, which can cost more than twice more than 128 GB of RAM.
Framework says that the desktop computers and the main panels should be Avaialble for pre -order today, with plans for charging in the third quarter. If you are reading these words, I am currently at a frame event in San Francisco, where the company also presented a file A new AMD version of the Framework PC 13 And laptop new frame 12: The first budget laptop, the first touch screen, and the first convertible.
