Then Framework isn’t a great option, as their hardware isn’t particularly new or fast. It’s not really their fault, but just a function of the modularity (which restricts space for cooling/PCB), the small company size (so they don’t get/integrate new chips as quickly).
This is true even if you upgrade it over time, as other laptops might be a generation ahead with higher end chips.
The one exception might be the Desktop. And that’s fairly niche.
Don’t get me wrong, I like Framework. But it’s not a great brand if you really need all the CPU/GPU you can get in a particular size.
