Framework Laptop 13 AMD Ryzen 7 7040 - Computer Build and Review #AMD #framework #ryzen

My Framework Laptop finally arrived, and I could not wait to build it.
If you're not familiar with Framework, their laptops are modular, and you should be able to swap out pieces at will. For example, you could trade up and get a new motherboard, CPU or even reuse your old one in a desktop chassis. They are a little spendy and recently started offering AMD Ryzen CPUs. I'm not sponsored, I actually paid money for this so feel free to laugh at me later if this company turns out to be worse than Apple or HP in the future. Fingers crossed that never comes to pass.

Watch as I unbox, build, install windows and drivers then finally my thoughts.
