@demounit Sorry I didn’t respond. I’ve been really busy today. Yes that’s the kit. Crucial is a well-known, solid performer in the USA. Nothing fancy or special, just a solid performer.
@Michael_Polsinelli thanks mate I pulled the trigger on it. it’s only 9 bucks more than the 16gb kit so I’m getting double the ram for 9 bucks, can’t complain. I scored a great deal on an SSD as well so I’m really happy with what I’ve got ready to go.
batch 1 just needs to ship now
Speaking of wams, I’ve only come across one or two kits that do better than 5600-CL46 with defaults.
What I would give to know if these boards allow memory profiles, as well as non-binary sizes like 24 and 48gb sticks…
FYI on that Crucial kit - from what I’m seeing, EXPO/XMP is required to hit 5600 speed according to Micron.
Having a little difficulty finding proper specs on Crucial’s site, but it seems that it’ll run lower than 5600 unless the FW13 board supports EXPO.
framework needs to unleash the full details of the board and let us know these things especially since a lot of us are getting our diy parts together.
Will someone remind me when to expect Batch one to be ready to ship?
Sometime in Q3.
Hopefully yes … Batch 1 was “early Q3” and Batch 2 “late Q3” iirc? Could be wrong though.
Not being in production makes me a bit “nervous” for two batches in Q3
I don’t care - I want it to be a good product, if it takes a few more months, so be it. I am sure that if that happens, there will be communication
Thanks, I thought they said early Q3. If it’s not (and it looks like it might not be), that’s OK. I just wish they would send a message along the lines of “Please be on the lookout for a payment request in the next 2-4 weeks for the final payment on your reservation.” It would help with juggling finances.
my ram came today
now I’m completely ready
patiently waiting
Anyone willing to trade a 16" batch 1 preorder slot for a 13" AMD batch 1 preorder slot?
Is this allowed?
@LukasHeiligenbrunner lol I have both batch 1 slots. I have no idea how I got so lucky. I’ll probably be cancelling my 13 and going with the 16 but haven’t 100% made up my mind yet. I am curious if you could trade…
@Morpheus636 I’d love to see a blog post about the ETA of the Ryzen variant. I know you mentioned in the other thread that there isn’t much to post since it’s so similar to the Intel 13 but I think it’s important for people waiting to know that this is still coming and that there set or reset an expectation for when Batches will be delivered.
I’m not a framework employee, just a volunteer community moderator, so that’s not up to me. When there’s more info to share, Framework will send it via email.
Yeah seriously, no excuses now. We are about to be a full month into Q3 and we can’t even get a timeline update
batch 1 gang on life support
me patiently waiting for the payment / shipping email:
