I have decided I want to get 32MB or RAM. I assume its cheaper to buy elsewhere but is it worth the uncertainty vs just buying directly from Framework?

Is this https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-5600MHz-5200MHz-4800MHz-CT16G56C46S5/dp/B0BLTDRRLF/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2QR8M6CIJKNCJ&keywords=16GB%2BDDR5-5600%2BSO-DIMM&qid=1698300741&sprefix=16gb%2Bddr5-5600%2Bso-dimm%2Caps%2C228&sr=8-2&th=1 compatible with the 13?

There's a list from framework detailing validated modules https://knowledgebase.frame.work/what-ram-memory-is-supported-in-framework-laptop-13-ryzen-7040-series-B1M60foth

Many others will probably work fine too though.

Don't know if you have your FW 13 yet or not. If you don't have a way to test the ram, I suggest waiting until Amazon has their extended holiday return window. Supposed to start Nov 1.

I am in batch 5.

Personally, this is only because I live in the UK and the price difference between non-framework ram and framework ram is £20 at the moment.

So I've added that to my order.

Dude 32MB RAM is way too little even for the most basic Linux distributions.

Seriously though, that RAM should work fine.

Of course, always get at least 32TB

We have a server with 2TB RAM at my job. It's amazing.

[–] chasingjulian@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Still more RAM than the Apollo missions (4KB). But yeah, I meant 32GB.

640K is all you need.
