Hello! Happy Framework laptop owner here. Any plan to release an AMD alternative mainboard?

  Very interested in this too. I would actually replace the Intel mainboard in my framework laptop and then use it for something else.

  How is the thermal management? It's a notoriously difficult part of a design. Thinkpads for example tend to excel and Dell tends to fail miserably. Does it get very hot in your lap for example?

    According to the thermometer right now: 50°C Sometimes it reaches 75% It's not hot by computer standards per se, but since it's built out of aluminum, there are moments when you wouldn't want to have it on your lap because it would be somewhat painful. Specially with some heavy compilation going on

  Here's a great discussion in the community forum about AMD alternatives, and why the company, especially at such an early stage, might refrain from discussion, etc. I don't speak for the company, just a fan. https://community.frame.work/t/amd-cpus-an-open-letter-to-the-framework-team/7036/9 https://community.frame.work/t/amd-cpus-an-open-letter-to-th...
