hi,

pretty much the subject… I am trying to choose my next laptop and I am tempted to buy a framework 13 AMD. I saw this post from one year ago : https://www.phoronix.com/review/framework-13-amd

and while the review is impressive, comments are not. how things have evolved since then? any experience?

EDIT: you convinced me, I just ordered mine. Thanks for the incredible answers !
NEW EDIT: I use arch (btw), and Gnome. For the answers, I do not think this will pose a problem but… what do you think?
(and yes, I ordered mine before reading last comment of paequ2 who doesn’t like it… for reasonable reasons, maybe. I hope I will have more luck ;) )

    Yeah you’re right that a website shouldn’t be able to cause that issue. I’m wondering if it’s a hardware issue. I’ll try to reproduce this later on and will report back. You said you have the current amd chip, framework 13 right?

      Yep! The Ryzen 5 7640U. It’s never immediately, it generally takes several minutes, maybe just bringing up a Tumblr page with a video and letting it loop for several minutes might hopefully do it, though, I’ve had a crash when Tumblr wasn’t the active tab so you can multitask if you’re fine with suddenly getting booted.
