    the Framework Desktop seems to be made for a different usecase

    They specifically advertise it as a gaming device. The author of this article is using it as a gaming device.

    You can fit a pretty serious LLM

    LLMs are fucking stupid and no one should use them.

      You are absolutely right. Baffles me why they’d put 128GB of RAM in there and use an SoC arhitecture where RAM is shared with GPU, to the detriment of upgradability, if not for AI.

      Any gamer would prefer upgradable RAM and upgradable GPU, especially from Framework.

      How else would you explain this decision to compromise their brand values and overspend on RAM, if not AI?
