[SOLD] [US-NJ] Framework 16 - AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS, 64 GiB RAM, 2 TB SN850X NVMe

Selling my 1st gen Framework 16 laptop with an AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS, 64 GiB RAM, and 2 TB SN850X NVMe. I barely used this machine since I had a sister Framework 16 work machine that I used all the time instead. Details of that machine in [CLAIMED] [US-NJ] Framework 16 - AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS, 96 GiB RAM, 2 TB SN850X NVMe.

I swapped the CPU thermal solution to the PTM sent by Framework. This machine basically sat on a shelf for almost the past year with the exception of me using it in my Framework 16 review video. There are no scratches on this machine whatsoever, not even on the screen which is difficult for a 1st gen machine. I’m selling this at such a low price with everything included in the hopes that it goes to a college student or a parent trying to gift their child a great computer for their studies. If you’re looking to score on this and resell it you should look in the mirror and ask yourself what happened.

Here are some other quick details about this machine.

  • Empty expansion bay w/ regular interposer.
  • SN850X has 212 powered on hours according to smartctl --all.
  • The battery has 18 charge cycles according to upower.
  • There’s no operating system on this machine but I can load Linux or Windows 11 if you’d like.
  • RAM model is CT2K32G56C46S5.

Outside of a DM on this forum you can find ways to contact me at https://matthewsanabria.dev.

Included Parts

  • 1x 180W Power Adapter
  • 6x Expansion Cards (3x USB-C, 1x USB-A, 1x HDMI, 1x SD Card)
  • Perhaps a surprise goodie bag of peripherals and components depending on what you’re going to use the machine for. Seriously, I want this to go to someone that really needs it but otherwise can’t afford this configuration at MSRP.

Beautiful Machine. Why did you originally buy two of them?

The company I was at previously gave me a MacBook Pro with their mobile device management software on it. I wanted a personal laptop to keep personal things separate so I bought the Framework 16. I then quit that job and went to a place that is all open source work and they gave me money to buy any machine I wanted. I bought another Framework 16 with the idea of keeping personal and work separate.

Fast forward to now, I primarily use my Framework Desktop which has much more performance than either laptop. I also switched my work and personal separation to use browser profiles and I found myself never using the personal Framework 16 so it’s time to sell it. Heck, I rarely use my work Framework 16 anymore- only for travel and even that’s getting annoying lugging around on airplanes. I didn’t even mention my custom 9950X3D workstation which my Framework Desktop also replaced due to power, size, and performance.

TL;DR I have 2x laptops and 2x desktops and I really only use 1x desktop and 1x laptop (travel only) so I’m downsizing.

Novel idea of selling something at a lower cost because you not using it as much as you thought. DM me! I’ve been looking to pick one of these up. Having a mod able laptop and it being creatively accessible is the biggest selling point of all Framework devices IMO.
