Radeon RX 7700S performance debut: Framework Laptop 16 review

105 min read Original article ↗

Detachable Radeon discrete graphics.

The name may be generic, but the design is anything but. The environmentally-friendly Laptop 16 takes everything great about the Laptop 13.5 and bumps it up a notch with even more upgradeable and customizable components including a removable Radeon RDNA 3 GPU.

Revealed at GDC 2023, The Framework Laptop 16 expands upon the repairability and sustainability aspects of the Framework 13.5 but in a larger 16-inch form factor. It's much more than just a bigger version, however, as the larger screen size has allowed for even more customization and optional parts than the original 13.5-inch design including removable discrete graphics, touchpad spacers, LEDs, and numpad.

Our review unit is the highest-end configuration with the Ryzen 9 7940HS and 100 W Radeon RX 7700S for roughly $2400 USD retail. Lower-end SKUs ship with the Ryzen 7 7840HS and no discrete GPU, but all options come with the same 1600p 165 Hz VRR IPS display. Barebone and DIY kits are also available much like for the Laptop 13.5. Framework says the company worked closely with AMD on the design of the Laptop 16 to imply that we shouldn't be holding our breath for any Intel-Nvidia options anytime soon.

Though the Laptop 16 is wholly capable of gaming because of its specifications, Framework is being careful to avoid calling it a gaming laptop for fear of pigeonholing the model. The Laptop 16 is instead targeting a broader audience consisting of multimedia users, content creators, and gamers alike. Competitors to the Laptop 16 include 16-inch laptops from more traditional makers like the HP Spectre x360 16, upcoming Dell XPS 16, Lenovo ThinkPad Z16, or the Apple MacBook Pro 16.

The chassis is an evolution of the smaller Laptop 13.5. While materials are largely the same between them, the Laptop 16 feels thicker and more rigid around the base for better first impressions even after accounting for all the new removable parts. Attempting to twist the base or warp the keyboard would result in almost no creaking and just minimal distortions which are already huge improvements over the more fragile Laptop 13.5.

Unfortunately, one attribute has not improved and that is the lid. Much like on the Laptop 13.5, the lid on the Laptop 16 is more susceptible to twisting and warping when compared to other 16-inch alternatives like the HP Spectre x360 16 or Blade 16. The hinges may be decent, but the lid feels like the weakest aspect of the chassis yet again.

Dimensions and weight are different depending on if the dGPU module is attached or if the smaller standard cover module is attached instead. Indeed, the Laptop 16 becomes noticeably heavier and longer than other 16-inch multimedia laptops when its dGPU module is attached. Its design is already quite long at 270 mm with just the standard cover module. If portability is a concern, you can certainly do better with more traditional laptops from Apple or the LG Gram series.

This is the only laptop in recent memory to integrate a total of six USB-C ports and nothing else — not even an audio jack or Kensington lock. All six ports are compatible with Framework's existing lineup of expansion cards and so they function the same way as on the Laptop 13.5.

It's important to note that the six USB-C ports are not created equal as shown by our table below. Only two are USB4, three are compatible with DP, and four are compatible with the USB-C AC adapter. There are no visual indicators to differentiate between the ports.

Additionally, there are still no expansion cards for full-size SD readers, WAN, or RJ-45. If such ports are important to you, then you'll have to look at USB adapters or docking stations.

A seventh USB-C port along the rear edge becomes available if the discrete GPU module is installed. This port is compatible with DP but not the AC adapter.

The Laptop 16 utilizes the same MicroSD expansion card reader as found on the Laptop 13.5 for similar read and write rates. At only around 80 MB/s, performance is much slower than the card readers on competing models like the ThinkPad Z16 Gen 2 or MacBook Pro 16.

We do not have access to the SD card reader expansion card for our Laptop 16 and so our data for the Laptop 13.5 is provided below in its place.

Wi-Fi 6 and 6E are provided by a MediaTek MT7922 instead of the usual AX211 in keeping with the Intel-free design of the model. We experienced steady and reliable connections when paired to our Asus AXE11000 test router.

WAN is unfortunately not supported.

A 2 MP webcam with IR and manual shutter come standard while competitors like the HP Spectre or Elite series have been shipping with 5 MP or higher webcams for well over a year. Hopefully Framework can offer improved webcam options in the future.

Unlike your typical laptop, the Laptop 16 is arguably defined by its accessories. The most notable include the removable rear discrete graphics module, LED Matrix modules, and RGB Macropad module. There is only one dGPU to choose from at the moment, but it's likely that more options will be made available in the future.

The RGB Macropad is a secondary option to the standard numpad. Its inputs are exactly the same as a regular numpad but the keys are visually different as they are transparent and with RGB backlighting whereas the standard numpad is printed and with only a white backlight. The clear and colorful keys of the Macropad can appeal to hardcore users or gamers who like to customize their key inputs.

As for the LED Matrix modules, these replace the regular spacers and consist of numerous LEDs in a pixel-like grid that can be programmed to show battery life levels, scrolling texts, notifications, or a clock.

Users who have no desire for the dGPU or LED Matrix modules can install standard plate covers in their respective places. These covers ship with all configurations of the Laptop 16.

Beyond the accessories, most internal parts are replaceable and can be individually purchased from the manufacturer including the mainboard just like on the Framework 13.5.

Accessing the motherboard is more involved than usual. Whereas most other laptops require you to only remove the bottom panel, the Laptop 16 requires you to remove the keyboard, clickpad, a ribbon cable, 15 Torx screws, and a metal mid-plate to reveal the innards. It's not difficult by any means, but the process is slightly longer when compared to something like a traditional ThinkPad or EliteBook.

Thankfully, Framework offers some of the most detailed and easy-to-follow repair guides we've seen from any laptop manufacturer to make maintenance a breeze. We highly recommend checking out the extensive official support page which covers everything from simple RAM and SSD upgrades to mainboard replacements and dGPU module installation. We don't need to reprint the entire maintenance process, but the procedures have a slightly higher learning curve than the Laptop 13.5 due to the complexities of the new removable dGPU and larger input modules.

While many of the modules are magnetic, a screwdriver is still required for installing the rear dGPU and some modules must be installed in a certain order. The rear module in particular is not plug-and-play as the system must be powered off and the keyboard and clickpad must first be removed. The good news is that you only need to disassemble and reassemble the system once before the maintenance procedures become second nature. Framework even encourages this by shipping the keyboard and clickpad detached which effectively forces the user to learn how some of the modules work before turning on the laptop for the first time. 

The use of magnets and latches for the touchpad modules is an intuitive approach to servicing. We're hopeful to see this expanded upon to the point where all modules and upgrades can be tool-less.

The standard one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies if purchased in the US. The protection covers the laptop in addition to its parts and modules.

The per-key RGB keys have 1.5 mm of travel which is common amongst most Ultrabooks. The typing experience doesn't feel hindered by the removable aspect of the keyboard which is exactly what we like to see. Users who prefer laptops with deeper and firmer key travel should try out the HP Spectre.   

Oddly, the numpad keys only have a white backlight whereas the main QWERTY keys are RGB lit. Users who prefer to have no numpad at all can instead install spacers to center the QWERTY keyboard or install an RGB macropad with customizable keys. The ability to reposition or center the keyboard to your liking is not something we've seen on any other laptop.  The numpad, for example, can be installed to the left or right of the QWERTY keyboard for some truly interesting configurations.

The keyboard and clickpad modules can be rearranged to unusual positions and the system will still recognize them and run normally. Spacers are available for users who want no numpad at all

At 12.3 x 7.7 cm, the Precision clickpad is smaller than the one on the MSI Prestige 16 (15 x 9 cm) and about the same size as the one on the Inspiron 16 Plus (11.5 x 8 cm). Traction is smooth on the matte glass surface with just a bit of sticking when gliding at slower speeds for improved accuracy. Clicking also feels good as feedback isn't as spongy as on the Prestige 16, but clatter is slightly louder as a result.

A unique aspect about the clickpad is that it can be shifted left or right on the palm rests depending on how it is installed as shown by the pictures below. This is a neat feature for users who might prefer the clickpad off-centered.

With absolutely no other display options to choose from at the time of writing, we have high expectations for the sole IPS panel that comes with every Laptop 16 configuration. Fortunately, we can safely say that Framework didn't cheap out on the display at all. The 2560 x 1600 panel offers fast response times, DCI-P3 colors, a bright backlight, relatively high contrast ratio, and even a variable 165 Hz refresh rate with FreeSync support. The Laptop 16 is consequently one of the first laptops to ship with the BOE NE160QDM-NZ6 VRR panel.

As an IPS panel, however, it doesn't quite reach the same pitch black contrast ratios or response times as a typical OLED alternative like those on the Asus VivoBook 16 series. It also lacks proper HDR support which is becoming an increasingly common feature on multimedia laptops. For a laptop that boasts end-user upgradeability, it's odd to see no second display option here. Even so, this is still one of the best 16-inch IPS displays we've seen for both editing and gaming purposes.

The display comes well-calibrated against the sRGB standard even though the panel covers 100% of DCI-P3. Calibrating the display ourselves would not improve its average deltaE values by noticeable margins and so an end-user calibration will not be necessary for most.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

       Response Time Black to White
11.3 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 6.1 ms rise
↘ 5.2 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 30 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (20.2 ms).

In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 28 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (31.6 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8091 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured.

At 500 nits, the display is brighter than many other multimedia laptops including even the OLED panels on the ThinkPad Z16 Gen 2 or MSI Stealth 16. The high brightness and matte panel make the screen easier to see under outdoor conditions.

We set Windows to Performance mode and AMD Adrenalin to Default prior to running the benchmarks below. SmartAccess Graphics is AMD's MUX solution to automatically switch between the iGPU and dGPU depending on the application. The problem is that unlike on GeForce-powered laptops, SmartAccess Graphics does not offer a "dGPU-only" or "iGPU-only" mode and so your graphics experience relies wholly on automatic switching. The system must freeze for a couple of seconds whenever it detects a GPU-heavy application which can be annoying when multi-tasking between different windows. Implementing a "dGPU-only" mode would have addressed this issue.

The Ryzen 9 7940HS is commonly found on fast multimedia or gaming laptops like the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 or TUF Gaming A17. It competes directly with the 13th gen Core i7-13700H and so the two processors are roughly comparable.

Framework offers the Ryzen 7 7840HS on lesser configurations of the Laptop 16. Based on our experience with the Lenovo Legion Slim 7 16APH8, however, the Ryzen 7 7840HS is essentially neck-to-neck with the Ryzen 9 7940HS despite what their price differences and naming convention may suggest. If you don't need that extra 5 percent performance from the Ryzen 9, then you can save yourself hundreds of dollars by going with the Ryzen 7 option.

It's too bad that Framework doesn't offer the Ryzen 9 Pro 7940HS which would have made the Laptop 16 more appealing to professionals.

LatencyMon reveals DPC issues when opening multiple browser tabs of our homepage. Additionally, we're able to record 6 dropped frames during a one-minute timespan when playing 4K60 video. Each dropped frame would occur at almost regular intervals to suggest an underlying driver issue potentially related to the AMD GPUs. In our experience, most Intel-based laptops do not suffer from similar issues and are more likely to drop no frames at all when running the same test.

Our test unit ships with the Western Digital SN810 PCIe4 x4 NVMe SSD which is an upgrade from the SN740 that's currently available on the Framework 13.5. The drive would exhibit no issues maintaining a ~7000 MB/s transfer rate for extended periods unlike what we observed on the HP Pavilion Plus 14 equipped with the very same WD SSD. This suggests that the Framework 16 was designed with better SSD cooling in mind to prevent performance throttling.

Unlike on the LG Gram 16 series, the Laptop 16 does not support an internal secondary SSD

The RDNA 3 Radeon RX 7700S directly succeeds last year's RDNA 2 Radeon RX 6700S. The newer architecture, however, hasn't improved performance by all that much unless if the game supports DX12; 3DMark Fire Strike results are almost identical between the two GPUs whereas Time Spy results are 20 to 25 percent faster than before. Bigger gains can be seen in RT performance as this was a weak spot with the older RDNA 2 architecture. Overall performance is most comparable to a laptop with GeForce RTX 4060 graphics like the Lenovo Legion Slim 7 16.

Even with the dGPU removed, the Radeon RX 780M iGPU is still more than capable of powering through multimedia tasks. The AMD GPU remains one of the fastest iGPU solutions available even though it was recently surpassed by the Intel Arc series.

Running on Windows Balanced mode instead of Performance mode does not appear to impact performance as shown by our Fire Strike results table below. Running on battery power would reduce performance by about 15 percent.

Gaming performance from the 100 W Radeon RX 7700S is about 10 to 30 percent behind the mobile GeForce RTX 4060 depending on the TDP. For example, performance is much closer to the 60 W RTX 4060 in the Dell Inspiron 16 Plus 7630 while the 140 W RTX 4060 would outperform our Radeon by wider margins. Thus, expect gaming performance to be in between the mobile RTX 4050 and mobile RTX 4060.

Performance would also be just slightly faster than last year's Radeon RX 6700S in most tested titles. The biggest gains can be seen when RT is enabled just as predicted by 3DMark. F1 22, for example, would run 30 to 40 percent faster than before when its RT settings are active compared to the more minor 5 to 15 percent gains when RT settings are off.

Performance-per-watt when running Witcher 3 on Ultra settings is comparable to a desktop GeForce RTX 4070 Ti or RTX 4080. Thus, the RDNA 3 GPU is at least efficient even if it's nowhere near as powerful as Nvidia's fastest. Meanwhile, the more competitive mobile RTX 4060 is still about 30 percent more efficient and this margin only increases in favor of Nvidia when running RT-enabled games.

Fan noise covers both extremes quite well in the sense that it can be very quiet when running undemanding loads and very loud when running more demanding loads like games. When simply browsing or video streaming, for example, fan noise would tend to hover around 28.5 dB(A) against a silent background of 23.8 dB(A) to be mostly inaudible. When running Witcher 3, however, fan noise can reach almost 52 dB(A) to be as loud as the competing Inspiron 16 Plus or some gaming laptops like the Razer Blade 16.

Surface temperatures are always warm owing to the metal chassis and lethargic fans. When running more demanding loads like games, hot spots can reach over 40 C on the top and bottom sides of the laptop base. Hot spots are closer to the center of the Laptop 16 whereas they are generally toward the rear on most other laptops. This means that you're more likely to notice the Framework system warming up during use when compared to something like the HP Spectre x360 16 where the palm rests and frontal areas tend to be cooler. Even so, we never found the Laptop 16 to be uncomfortably warm on the skin.

Keep in mind that the 180 W USB-C AC adapter is one of the smallest we've seen (~11.6 z 5.7 x 2.6 cm) for its power output. Its compact size is made possible by GaN transistors which is a technology that Razer also utilizes for its own AC adapters. The downside to GaN is that the adapters themselves can become very warm at over 60 C in our experience. In comparison, larger non-GaN chargers would typically range between 40 C to 50 C under load.

(±) The average temperature for the upper side under maximal load is 36.2 °C / 97 F, compared to the average of 31.3 °C / 88 F for the devices in the class Multimedia.
(±) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 42.4 °C / 108 F, compared to the average of 36.9 °C / 98 F, ranging from 21.1 to 71 °C for the class Multimedia.
(±) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 40.8 °C / 105 F, compared to the average of 39.2 °C / 103 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 28.7 °C / 84 F, compared to the device average of 31.3 °C / 88 F.
(+) Playing The Witcher 3, the average temperature for the upper side is 30.2 °C / 86 F, compared to the device average of 31.3 °C / 88 F.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are reaching skin temperature as a maximum (33.2 °C / 91.8 F) and are therefore not hot.
(-) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.7 °C / 83.7 F (-4.5 °C / -8.1 F).

The CPU would boost to 4.6 GHz and 80 W for the first couple of seconds when initiating Prime95 stress before quickly falling and stabilizing to 4.0 GHz, 54 W, and a toastier-than-expected 96 C. Repeating this same test on the Lenovo Slim Pro 9i 16 with the Core i9-13905H would result in a cooler core temperature of 82 C. This suggests that Framework would rather boost processor performance and limit throttling even it means higher average core temperatures which enthusiasts might appreciate.

The GPU would stabilize at 2363 MHz and 99 W when running Witcher 3 which means it can utilize its entire 100 W budget when gaming. Core temperature would remain decently low at 66 C compared to 62 C on the aforementioned GeForce-powered Lenovo.

Power consumption is comparable to the Dell Inspiron 16 Plus or MacBook Pro 16 2023 when idling or when running undemanding loads. When running higher loads like games, however, consumption would be higher than expected. Running Witcher 3 would demand 172 W compared to just 122 W on the RTX 4060-powered Inspiron 16 Plus. When considering that the RTX 4060 can frequently edge out the Radeon RX 7700S in many games, the GPU performance-per-watt of the Laptop 16 just isn't as good as Nvidia's alternative which backs up our claims made above.

The CPU can also be quite demanding with a systemwide consumption of 110 W when running Prime95 compared to only 75 W on the MSI Stealth 16 powered by the Core i9-13900H.

We're able to record a maximum draw of 176 W from the small 180 W USB-C AC adapter when running games or other extreme loads like Prime95 and FurMark. This is important to note because the limited AC adapter overhead can bottleneck the performance or charging capabilities of the laptop. In this case, the charge rate is impacted when running demanding loads. For example, we're able to observe the battery drain from 100% to 85% when connected to an outlet and running Witcher 3 meaning that it is not possible to charge the battery at a decent rate while running demanding loads simultaneously. Such a scenario would never occur on most other laptops.

Battery life from the 85 Wh battery is respectable at just over 9 hours of real-world WLAN browsing to be similar to the Dell Inspiron 16 Plus 7630 or HP Spectre x360 2-in-1. We recommend setting the display to a variable refresh rate instead of its fixed and default 165 Hz to squeeze more out of the battery. When on the dynamic 83 Hz to 165 Hz setting, for example, we're able to last 20 minutes longer from the same WLAN test. Most smartphones employ this same technique to save on battery life.

Charging from empty to full capacity with the included AC adapter takes about 2 hours if idling on desktop or running undemanding loads. If running more extreme loads, however, the battery would charge much more slowly as mentioned above. A larger 240 W USB-C AC adapter could have potentially solved this issue.

In review: Framework Laptop 16
In review: Framework Laptop 16

The trend towards thinner and lighter laptops is made possible by fusing more and more components onto the mainboard. The main drawback to this approach is that it limits repairability as even a small fault may require replacing entire boards. Framework is one of the only manufacturers looking the other way in an attempt to improve end-user customization and servicing. There's no question that the Laptop 16 is more user-friendly to service than any alternative, but this lucrative feature comes at the cost of size and weight as individual components must be easily replaceable. If you only intend to upgrade the RAM or SSD just once or twice in the span of a laptop's lifetime, then more compact and travel-friendly 16-inch alternatives like the Inspiron 16 Plus or Asus VivoBook Pro 16 might serve you better in this regard.

The removable dGPU is also a risky endeavor as it has historically been unsuccessful from larger OEMs like Dell and Lenovo. The fact that universal USB4 or Thunderbolt-based eGPU options exist makes the specialized Laptop 16 dGPU that much less compelling. If you truly want discrete graphics on the road, then the GeForce RTX 4060 can offer both better performance and performance-per-watt than the Radeon 7700S. Framework will therefore have to support the Laptop 16 dGPU design for years to come with future RDNA options to make the investment worthwhile. Purchasing today will mean trusting the company to do just that.

The Framework Laptop 16 is bigger and heavier than other 16-inch laptops in the name of repairability and sustainability. If you upgrade often or foresee repairs, then the Laptop 16 can be worthwhile. If not, then alternatives from larger OEMs tend to be both faster and lighter.

Because of the reasons above, interested buyers should value the expansion cards, sustainability angle, and high repairability of the girthy Laptop 16 as alternatives tend to be thinner, lighter, and sometimes faster especially at the $2000 range. If Framework can somehow match the size of the Razer Blade 16 or MacBook Pro while maintaining repairability, then future revisions can potentially become something very special. For now, you'll have to sacrifice a bit of portability in order to enjoy all the unique features of the Framework.

Framework is now accepting pre-orders for the Laptop 16 starting at $1400 USD for the base Ryzen 7 DIY edition up to over $2400 when configured with Ryzen 9, discrete Radeon 7700S graphics, and multiple expansion cards and modules.
