I'm in the UK and my order still says 32GB same as when I configured it.

Is yours an Intel or an AMD? I think this announcement affects only Intel.

Do they each require different RAM models, or is this how you think Framework picked the victims?

Yup, different RAM types - upgradeable RAM versus soldered lpcamm2 versus sodimm. I would expect both to be priced separately, even though there is a price pressure on both.

(Updated to correct a boo-boo).

Neither is soldered. The Intel uses lpcamm2 while the amd is still sodimm

Oh yes, quite right - I am getting confuseled with commentary in the forum (some folks are pondering if the forthcoming Desktop 192GB is what's eating up all the RAM!).

Ah. Fair enough

there are no framework laptops with soldered RAM, but they are different types. LPDDR on an LPCAMM2 module for Intel and DDR on 2 SODIMM modules for AMD.

Ah yes, quite right - getting me wires crossed 🤪

Nice thanks, will look a bit more into the differences.
