Framework Laptop 16 (2025 Refresh) — RTX 5070 & AMD Ryzen AI 300
Framework has opened pre-orders for the refreshed Laptop 16. This model brings major internal upgrades while keeping the modular, repairable ethos Framework is known for.
Highlights
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 graphics module (now fully backward-compatible with 2024 Laptop 16 models)
- AMD Ryzen AI 300 Series CPUs: 8-core Ryzen 7 and 12-core Ryzen 9 options (45W sustained TDP)
- Updated thermal system with redesigned fan blades for reduced noise
- Upgradeable memory up to 96GB and storage up to 10TB
- Mainboard supports four simultaneous display outputs
- New 240W USB-C power adapter as the standard option (designed to allow sustained full-load operation)
- Other upgrades: new webcam, CNC aluminum top cover redesign, and new keyboard options
Performance & Compatibility
Framework claims the RTX 5070 module delivers a 30–40% increase in gaming framerates compared to the prior Radeon RX module. The new NVIDIA module is sold separately and is backwards-compatible with 2024 Laptop 16 owners, so you can upgrade graphics without replacing the whole laptop.
Pricing & Availability
- Pre-orders are open now. Shipments are expected in November.
- Price starts at $1,500 for the new model. Framework has reduced the previous Laptop 16 iteration to $1,300.
