I was looking for pre-orders to open expecting there will be an Nvidia GPU option too (for gaming + stable diffusion image generation etc).
This has AMD Processor with integrated graphics only. I have never used a computer with AMD processors, will it be able to use Nvidia GPU later at all?
- CarVac 3y agoIt has an option for a discrete AMD GPU. No word on other vendors' GPUs—yet.
- smusamashah 3y agoUpdated my comment after reading the post more closely. It does mean that it can get nvidia GPU in future right?
- p_j_w 3y agoFramework has made no such promise, but I can’t imagine they’re not interested in making that happen.
- therapee 3y agoConfigure > Expansion Bay System There's an AMD Radeon™ RX 7700S GPU available for 400$. The Verge article implied that they'd be releasing new GPUs in the future, as well. (emphasis on implied - it's not a certainty.)
- ploxiln 3y agoIt has a dedicated AMD GPU option. That should work quite well for gaming. For CUDA ML stuff, it won't, as you suspect. (Will an Nvidia GPU come later, theoretically it could, but Nvidia is probably less willing to work with Framework ...)
- smusamashah 3y agoDoes it mean a thirdparty nvidia vendor like MSI etc can make one for framework though?
- nrp 3y agoWe've published documentation around the interface, and are happy to work with anyone who wants to develop a new module: https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/ExpansionBay https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/ExpansionBay
