Built to be taken apart
Framework Laptop 16 is built like a desktop, giving you full control, from Expansion Cards to core components.
Expansion Bay Modules
They said we couldn't do it, but we did it anyway! The Framework Laptop 16 now offers two Graphics Module options: AMD Radeon™ RX 7700S (2nd Gen) and NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPU.
Unlock serious performance and flexibility with Expansion Bay Modules. Slot them into the rear Expansion Bay to add high-performance upgrades like discrete Graphics Modules. The interface is open source too, giving developers the freedom to build and push the hardware even further.
Graphics Module
Graphics Modules bring desktop-like upgradability to your laptop. Slide a Graphics Module into your Expansion Bay to unlock serious performance gains for gaming, creating, machine learning, and simulation. This module increases the rear height to 21.95mm.
Choose between AMD Radeon™ RX 7700S (2nd Gen) and NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPU options.
Expansion Bay Shell
The default Expansion Bay Module keeps things slim and light, featuring dual 75mm x 8.2mm Cooler Master fans. For developers and hardware hackers, the Expansion Bay Shell offers over 35cc of open space and access to the PCIe x8 interface, ideal for building your own high-power modules. Explore our GitHub to get started.
Dual M.2 Adapter
Upgrade your Framework Laptop 16 with two additional M-key M.2 modules in any of these sizes: 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280. The most common use case for this is adding NVMe SSDs, letting you load up to an additional 16TB of storage.
Expansion Cards
Choose what ports and functionality you want in each of the 6 slots: USB-C, USB-A, HDMI, DP, Ethernet, 250GB, 1TB, MicroSD, SD, Audio.
USB-C
The default card, supporting USB4, 48V/5A charging, and DisplayPort Alt Mode for connecting monitors, all on either side of the notebook.
USB-A

Keyboards
All Framework Laptop 16 keyboards feature 1.5mm key travel and offer your choice of white backlighting or per-key RGB. Built for both flexibility and performance, they support NKRO and run on open source QMK firmware powered by a Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller. The keycaps are made from 30% post-consumer recycled plastics and use a water-based paint process to reduce environmental impact.
