The 7900 specifically.

They have to stay within the TDP. Their only option is something newer and ~100W (like the 5070).

Also (while no 395 is disappointing), it is a totally different socket/platform, and has a much higher TDP, so it may not even work in the Framework 16 as its currently engineered. For instance, the cooling or PSU just may not be able to cope.

A new power brick is needed anyway. That’s why FW now has a much more powerful one as well.

The 395 obviously would throttle if heat or power become a problem.

If GPD can put the 395 in a handheld, Framework can put it in a 16" chassis.
