Thoughts on Framework 16 CPU choices? (self.framework)

I'm thinking about buying the 16 as I want a new Linux-compatible laptop and I like the whole idea behind Framework. I do a little bit of gaming but honestly just what my Steam Deck is capable of, so I was planning on buying it without the GPU for the moment.

Looking at the two processor choices, they seem very similar on performance. I'm not sure I can justify the $200 price difference, especially with the hope of a future upgrade to a newer generation.

Any other thoughts?

It looks like it's the same 12 CUs but 2.7GHz vs 2.8GHz. Ultimately though I think I'd rather save the $200 and go with a GPU sooner.

@raptir
That's what I went with too, for similar reasons
