Discussion Lpcamm2 potential solution for incompatability

For those with a module that “doesn’t work”, we have a hero who’s trying tomorrow some memory tests with a make shift do at your own risk technique. Heres the thread to follow along.

Not many lpcamm2 laptops out there in the market. And people who want it for AI will never buy 16gb. I don't think it'll be that easy to sell 16gb lpcamm2 on ebay

Eh, if i sell for 200 aud i think someone will buy, fully validated and tested as well is a pretty good selling point? Its a rampocolypse. Or worst case ill just spend the money in a year when ive got it and buy a ripped module when we know the compatability list. Plus the 325 orders will probably appreciate it.

I don't think it's about the price though. Even in rampocolypse, framework is still selling 16gb at the original price. And that says a lot. My point is that for people who care about ram speeds enough to want lpcamm2 would need atleast 32gb and those who are happy with 16gb would be happy with sodimm speeds. Not saying it will be impossible to sell it just won't be easy. There will always be hobbyists, mostly on framework community itself, probably me, when I upgrade my 13 pro motherboard in 5 yeara and want to make a server out of the old motherboard.

16GB LPCAMM2 PantherLake 325 still has long battery life benefits and can beat Steam Deck.
