They have an adapter that turns it into a desktop computer, sort of like an Intel NUC.
whos they?
Framework probably
I think its made by Framework and Coolermaster
Oh... You mean like buying it and using it as a modular desktop? That could be interesting but I don't know if it'll have the horse power I need anyways (for gaming). For a home server I bet it'll be more than enough.
Also, I travel with my laptop somewhat frequently so a desktop wouldn't be ideal (unfortunately. I prefer desktops over laptops)
You know the 16 has a detachable graphics module, right?
I did not... I just had a look at their page and you're absolutely right. Fuck... I think my next laptop might just be a framework...
Sweet!
Might work well as a little media centre or server, after all the form factor is pretty slim. Me thinks if anyone wants a gaming laptop they might go for a specialised gaming laptop for that purpose.
I agree. I really do want a framework thought, the fact that it's modular is so cool that it just makes me want to buy it... But the tech isn't quite there yet for my needs. Hopefully one day :)
No it’s so you can do something with the motherboard when you replace it other than ewaste. Here’s the part. It’s only $40 but you need to add a couple parts like a wifi module. https://frame.work/products/cooler-master-mainboard-case
whats an intel NUC
Tiny desktop computer made from laptop components. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/docs/boards-kits/nuc/what-is-nuc-article.html
