  • Using your 13 for gaming might damage your hardware in the long run.
    I used my r7 7840u for gaming several times and it was always above 85°C, sometimes even over 90°C. Although mobile APUs are designed to withstand more heat than desktop CPUs, I wouldn’t risk damaging my hardware.
    I have the same problem as you with my old desktop gaming rig beeing as fast as my Framework 13 but the temperatures really concerns me.
    My solution would be an eGPU dock like the GPD G1 or the OneXGPU, so my APU wouldn’t run too hot.
    Anyone here with experience on these two?
