What processor powers the Framework Desktop?
The Framework Desktop is powered by the AMD Ryzen AI Max processor, specifically the Strix Halo architecture. This provides an incredible amount of compute power, including strong integrated Radeon graphics capabilities. It serves as the core of the entire modular system.
