That’s unfortunate.

I think Framework did a great job with this, but after owning it since August I wouldn’t recommend it. It’s actually been an incredibly frustrating experience for me from first boot.

I bought this to do self hosting and AI stuff, but currently PyTorch and ONNX do not work. AMD’s software stack is completely fucked. I don’t know if they pay kyuz0 money, but he’s the only person on this planet who seems to be able to make it do anything.

My biggest criticisms are:

• Thunderbolt display support sucks, but I think this is linux issue. I’ve hacked it to work, but it’s janky.
• As mentioned, the AMD driver stack is trash. I honestly don’t know how there isn’t a class action for false advertising. I have tried every permutation of instructions on their website, I’ve tried TheRock, it’s all just been a waste of dozens of hours.
• The HDMI port doesn’t do CEC, which by all accounts it should, but the HDMI consortium are blocking it I guess. I’d take a closed source patch at this point.

And again, absolutely none of this is Framework’s fault, I’ll never buy an AMD device again.
