Afaik they have to sign the package. If you gave your moms adress your mom is the one who will actually need to sign. On the other hand, mine got delivered and they didn’t ask me to show an ID or asked if I was the right person.

And you should be able to get it from a pickup location but FedEx isn’t that big in germany so you should expect some distance. Before delivery, mine was stored in a city about an hour away from me (with a car).

If you still want to do the pickup version, you should contact FedEx with your contact info, your ID and your order information and should be able to do that (not guaranteed though, because I’ve never used this and couldn’t choose an option like this in the shipping menu)

I live in germany and was scared as well but it did arrive in one piece. And luckily they even handed to me instead of throwing it.

They have had a weird route though. All okay though

I use my FW as my whole setup as well. I have a tower PC but I’m only using that for heavy tasks. That’s because I need to work on the go and don’t want to move files all the time.

Afaik they use less power for the same cooling capacity which would be a pretty nice cooler replacement in the future. But it will probably take some time even if FW engineers had the time to try it out right now. Integrating a cooler into the FW where every component needs to be in the exact same position because of compatibility issues would require a lot of work.

How long did you wait for the respone? They have a full support queue still waiting. Even if you get rejected you should get a response.

This sounds more like a problem for the carrier rather than framework. You should ask them again and tell them that your package didn’t get delivered. You should wait for their response (about 2 weeks should be appropriate).

By then you should have a response of framework and can decide your next steps. If FedEx declines you can threaten them with legal steps. You should keep that as the last step though.

I don’t know how it’s done in the philippines but here in europe the customs and taxes are paid directly by framework. That’s because EU laws force companies to portray the price including taxes and have to directly pay them with your order.

Maybe your country does the same? But nontheless it would be pretty easy to find out:

Go on the framework website and choose your laptop. Add it to the cart and see if it includes taxes. Then you would need to know the tax rate of the philippines on electronics and calculate them in. Now you know the price it will cost for the laptop to arrive (I assume that the shipping is free everywhere like here in europe)

For me and my german internet speed it is quite enough. Got full usage of my 80 Mb/s line.

But on the other hand, if you are further away of the WiFi-source or need a higher speed, you might want to consider the intel one. For normal office work and reasonable distance the original one should be enough

Which games? Did you adjust some settings in windows/your games?

Win10 isn’t officially supported so you should expect the absence of a fix.

Same here. Batch 5 AMD 7 in germany.

Probably we are the last ones of Batch 5.

I wouldn’t worry yet. We should start worrying when someone from Batch 6 gets his device before us.

Agreed. The gear looks incredible cool.

For now though, I would recommend a 14 inch laptop sleeve and use the extra side space for the expansion cards.

Currently, I don’t know about a good way to store your laptop and your expansion cards in a good way.

Even for a bunch of tabs and programs opened, you shouldn’t run into problems with 32GB. Except if you really need it of course (you would probably know this already though, if it was limiting you).

Do you intend to game a bit on it? Because if so, I would recommend the CL40 RAM. If not, you probably are fine with CL46 because it is cheaper.

If you aren’t sure about the capacity you could look up guides for your programs and use cases.

It will probably work but there is no guaranteed success. You shouldn’t post this twice though, because the mods could block you for spam.

Iirc the estimated time for support to get to your ticket is about a week. Did you get your installation of windows on the ssd included, or did you install it yourself? Because with the first option, it probably should have been activated already.

If you bought one yourself, you should have gotten an installation key yourself as well. It’s cheaper. Did you check your framework profile yet? Maybe they link them into your order.

You shouldn’t use an expansion card as an OS-drive. But you could split your SSD into multiple partitions and dual boot off of it. On the other hand you could use the second SSD slot as well.

​

My best advice would be to make a really small Windows partition (only the OS plus a bit of storage for personal stuff) and use an expansion card as your game storage. That way you could use it on a different machine as well.

I would recommend to use different RAM because of the price benefit. There shouldn’t be problems (not guaranteed though). I’m probably going with https://www.idealo.de/preisvergleich/OffersOfProduct/202293121_-fury-impact-32gb-kit-ddr5-5600-cl40-kf556s40ibk2-32-kingston.html.
