I’m going to pop in here to say a few things.
A) I can confirm a Razer Core X works with the Framework Laptop as an external GPU enclosure (I currently am using the i7-1165 model with 16 gb RAM with a 2060 super in the enclosure)
B) Definitely cpu bottle necked when playing games at times, but otherwise ran quite well. I tried out No Mans Sky running at the native screen resolution of the laptop at fairly high graphics settings and except for a few frame drops to around the 30s (usually when loading in assets and whatnot), I got 60 fps the rest of the time. I’d say a pretty decent gaming experience
C) slightly separate but, (as I was typing this post up on the laptop it happened), the laptop will randomly freeze up and the only way to force it to shut down is the good ol’ holding the power button until it shuts off. It’s so far only happened when on my desktop and not running any games or anything. I don’t know if it’s because it’s connected to the external GPU yet but I’ll get back to your guys on that
