What DRAM/memory is supported by Framework Laptop 13 (AMD Ryzen™ 7040 Series)?

October 31 2024 7:01pm • Est. Read Time: 2 MIN

Note: We do not currently have XMP memory support on the Framework Laptop.  We recommend using DRAM that natively runs at DDR5-5600 speeds.  While XMP memory should safely fall back to a slower speed, we have seen customer reports of some XMP memory modules not booting.

Framework Laptop 13 (AMD Ryzen 7040 Series) supports two slots of DDR5 SO-DIMM memory at the recommended native DDR5-5600 speed. We've tested compatibility with Framework-branded DDR5 modules and the retail modules listed below. We will update the list as we test additional modules over time.


Linux support for 64GB (Inclusive) and higher RAM capacities may cause white/blank screen issues with displays on some distributions with kernels below 6.5. Ubuntu OEM kernel oem-6.1-1021 and later has a backported workaround. For other distributions, please verify you are using 6.5 or utilize the following patch if you experience this issue:
