Hello, I am curious about the following:
Is AI 300 module and Nvidia 12 GB graphics releasing on time?
Which batches have released? Just the first?
Any updates that I might have missed by this point?
I am just asking because finding the information is hard and I figured it wouldn’t hurt to ask.
I did a quick lookup and it seems like at least the RTX 5070 12GB expansion has the first batch out. Framework 16 RTX 5070 12 GB rollout tracker
I have no idea if buying the bundled AMD AI 300 and RTX 5070 12GB is on a different schedule from the stand alone RTX 5070 12GB or not. It appears the bundled version batch list is this (Batch 6 clearly being wrong and hasn’t been updated since we’re only on Batch 5):
- Batch 1 Expected Jul, previously Jun - Sold Out
- Batch 1 - Haptic Touchpad Expected Jul, previously Jun - Sold Out
- Batch 2 Ships July - Sold Out
- Batch 2 - Haptic Touchpad Expected Aug, previously Jul - Sold Out
- Batch 3 With Haptic Touchpad: Expected Aug, previously Jul. Without Haptic Touchpad: Ships July - Sold Out
- Batch 4 With Haptic Touchpad: Expected Sept, previously Jul. Without Haptic Touchpad: Ships July - Sold Out
- Batch 5 With Haptic Touchpad: Ships Sept. Without Haptic Touchpad: Ships August
- Batch 6 Ships July
Looking further into it the RTX 5070 12GB standalone is slated for Batch 3 with an August release. So they could be released at different times, but I would wager that the release times are very close with the Batch 1 standalone potentially going out first just before the bundled Batch 1.
They just sent an update email saying I’ll be delayed into August. Darn.
