Framework officially launched pre-orders for its AMD Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495-powered Desktop mini PCs on September 30, with pricing starting at $6,799 for the DIY Edition and $7,449 for the pre-built model. Despite the high cost, the first batch sold out within hours due to limited RAM availability. Framework later secured additional RAM and opened a second limited batch, with shipments expected in November.
The company warned that future prices may rise due to increasing memory costs. Framework has faced criticism before for price changes, including a recent increase for Framework 13 Pro pre-order holders despite earlier promises of stable pricing.
