https://amzn.to/47AJmOg its only gen 3 speeds but still something like this cost an arm and a leg when i bought one for my desktop. And apparently gen 3 is better for battery life anyway.

It makes 0 difference to power consumption if you're comparing like to like kits. What matters in ram is the voltage. Most ddr5 sodimm kits run at 1.1v whereas some of the crazy fast kits run at 1.35v.

However, the only 1.35v kits I've seen were XMP (which I believe framework doesn't support at least on the AMD boards). You should be fine with whatever you go with.

    While true, there are no memory kits I can find at least through pcpartpicker that are 262 pin DDR5 that run more than 1.1v
