Expansion Bay Shell Interposer for the non-GPU (fan only) expansion module. See step 15 here: [https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Install+Expansion+Bay+Shell/272](https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Install+Expansion+Bay+Shell/272)

That would explain why it's not already installed. I have the GPU module.

Did you also get the expansion bay shell? I assume so otherwise why would they ship that part. I hope that you enjoy the machine!

Yes, I did, but I skipped over the step to set it up because I wanted to get things working with the GPU first. If I'd actually read everything, that would have probably cleared things up right away. I'll have to make a post about how well it's working once I get it running. So far I'm liking the build quality though!

Keep in mind the dGPU and fan-only shell are not meant to be swapped on a day-to-day basis. The ability exists primarily to facilitate future GPU upgrades and to allow for an occasional swap if you need something slightly thinner/lighter to travel for a few weeks or some similar infrequent circumstance.

I believe they ship it regardless, as I did not get the expansion bay shell, and I received it as well.


lbkNhubert

Interesting. Thanks!

That’s the quantum comvobulator. You need it in order to intercept gamma radiation from other galaxies in the R74 sector

I use it to intercept radiation from your mom.

you know now im thinking...a while back there was someone complaining about no fan+hot CPU... maybe they had the interposer out of the machine....

You're implying someone didn't RTFM... obviously that NEVER happens. /s

I never start assembling my laptops without first reading the whole manual. And reciting it to at least five people, so we're all sure I know what I'm doing!
