We’re excited to announce the new Framework Laptop 16, now with AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 Series processors and a graphics upgrade to NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPU!
They have to stay within the TDP. Their only option is something newer and ~100W (like the 5070).
And I’m pretty sure the 7000 series is going out of production anyway…
Also (while no 395 is disappointing), it is a totally different socket/platform, and the 395 has a much, much higher effective 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 physically handle it. Or perhaps there’s no space on the PCB.

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.
