for anyone who wants to offer actual advice: its a lenovo thinkpad t450 with a soldered i5-5300U that hits over 90C when running cargo compiles. I have changed the thermal paste and it didn’t do much.

    Framework 13 is unfortunately not a workstation replacement. Framework 16 is, with options for the 7040HS CPU, but they’re:

    • not available as second-hand
    • too expensive
    • RAM is limited only to 32GB

      agreed that those machines can be expensive but all framework models can absolutely have 64 GB of RAM

      source : me, the fw13 that I use as a server and my fw16 both have 64 GB (I love those machines)
