Framework Laptop 13 with AMD Chipset: Latest News

Last Updated October 19, 2023 By Subhash D Leave a Comment

The 2023 Framework Laptop 13 is making a tremendous roar on the market by introducing the AMD option, which offers impressive performance. The advent of this laptop brings the comparison between Intel and AMD to the forefront, allowing users to juggle between Intel and AMD processors without changing the machine. This switch will cost you around $449 (which is the price of a Ryzen 5 mainboard).

AMD Framework is like a blessing for those who own an Intel version and are looking forward to an upgrade. The presence of both Intel and AMD versions helps users draw a comparison between the two. Both have the same price: the pre-built models are priced at $1,049, and the DIY kits are priced at $849.

In this tug-of-war, AMD stands as the clear winner. There are many cases in which the AMD Framework outperforms Intel. However, the only exception is that Intel leads in terms of single-core performance. However, regarding multicore performance, AMD’s Ryzen process takes the leading position despite having fewer cores than the Intel Core i7.

In terms of graphics, AMD is better because its 780M delivers great performance for an integrated GPU. On the other hand, Intel’s Iris Xe has not been updated recently and therefore falls short. In some tests, it can be seen that AMD outperforms Intel by as much as 50 percent in some cases. However, this extra power does not result in efficiency lag.

Both models have a 61Wh battery. The average battery life of the models is also almost identical, which is 9 hours 12 minutes. The Ryzen chip helps in thermal management. During the benchmark testing, the temperature of Core i7 reaches as much as 100 degrees Celsius, whereas that of Ryzen 7 remains below 90 degrees. However, the fan of the Ryzen model is noisier.

Introducing the Ryzen Framework is particularly exciting for DIY enthusiasts since it offers better power and efficiency than the Intel model at the same price. Cherry on the top, it is compatible with the existing Framework laptops!

If you can’t wait to lay your hands on it, the Intel Framework is available with a 9 out of 10 rating. The AMD version, despite the differences in performance, is also fantastic. However, the performance differences can be seen in the GPU-extensive and multithreaded applications.

Therefore, we can conclude that the AMD Framework Laptop 13 is an excellent alternative to its counterpart featured by Intel. Due to its affordability, it is an excellent choice for those who are looking forward to upgrading to a new laptop.
