We're able to hold our current pre-built system pricing and Framework Desktop pricing for now, but expect that we will need to update pricing within the next few weeks. That makes the current Framework Desktop pricing a relative bargain, especially for the 128GB config.
The Verge
Framework says it is raising DDR5 RAM prices to charge $10 per GB, after a price hike earlier in December due to “substantially higher costs” amid the AI boom
Emma Roth / The Verge :
Memory costs from our suppliers continue to increase, now landing 3-5x higher than a year ago, so we have had to increase DDR5 pricing further to $10/GB for most capacities. This puts us around the cheapest available retail modules, and still far below Apple's $25/GB.

Emma Roth / The Verge :
Our new pricing is as close as we can get to passing through our actual purchase costs for modules from our suppliers and distributors, which means we're absorbing a lot of the cost increase. We have the full detail in our blog post here: https://frame.work/...

Emma Roth / The Verge :
Our suppliers indicate that memory pricing will continue to increase in early 2026. As we shared before, we'll stay transparent on price updates, we will only increase prices to cover cost increases, and we will bring prices back down as costs decrease in the future.

Due to the new tariffs that came into effect on April 5th, we're temporarily pausing US sales on a few base Framework Laptop 13 systems (Ultra 5 125H and Ryzen 5 7640U). For now, these models will be removed from our US site. We will continue to provide updates as we have them.

Framework pauses sales of its six lowest-priced laptops in the US, saying the models would sell at a loss due to the 10% tariff that went into effect on April 5
Framework—a company that makes upgradeable and repairable laptops—has said it will pause sales on several versions …
@amountainartist We priced our laptops when tariffs on imports from Taiwan were 0%. At a 10% tariff, we would have to sell the lowest-end SKUs at a loss. Other consumer goods makers have performed the same calculations and taken the same actions, though most have not been open about it.

Llama 4 Scout looks like a perfect model for Framework Desktop! 109B, so it will fit in the 128GB configuration at Q6 (or possibly higher), and it's an MoE model, so only 17B parameters are active at a time. Looking forward to trying this @metaai! [image]
