Framework Desktop Batch 16 Guild

Update on my end - After having cancelled to avoid the imminent shipping I still went ahead and (re)ordered about a week later. I used the extra time to look again at other options and was hesitating mostly to get a Corsair AI Workstation, but there is barely any reviews. I received the computer 4 days ago.

Some notes:

  • Front panel is hard to fit and remove on my unit, overall I find the build quality is average
  • I had multiple issues with Fedora Cinnamon, but no issues to report on the main Fedora
  • Got the RGB fan, support is very bad on Linux… only configurable through framework_tool --rgbkbd which was meant for the laptops apparently, config doesn’t survive suspend or reboot
  • The PSU fan is indeed fairly annoying, it seems to either be fully on or off. I’ll add details in the other thread`
