HP is putting full Windows desktop hardware straight inside a typing deck again, and it will cost you over three grand to get in the door. The company has rolled out the EliteBoard G2a, updating its compact keyboard computer line with AMD Gorgon Point processors just months after debuting the original build.

Pricing in the US starts at $3,028 for an entry model equipped with the AMD Ryzen AI 5 Pro 435, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB solid-state drive. Buyers wanting a detachable cable instead of a fixed cord pay slightly more, with that variant starting at $3,053. In the UK, the base setup comes with 24GB of RAM at an official sticker of £2,317.82, though HP's regional store opened orders with a discount down to £1,379.99. HP has not announced launch timing or pricing for India yet.

Those wanting extra speed can spec the device up with the AMD Ryzen AI 7 Pro 450, paired with 32GB of RAM and a 512GB drive. That top-tier configuration costs $4,167 with the attached USB4 lead or $4,191 if you prefer the detachable cord. The upgraded silicon brings AMD Radeon 860M graphics to replace the entry model's Radeon 840M. For enterprise buyers chasing Copilot+ certifications, both chips carry an integrated neural processing unit rated at 50 TOPS for local machine-learning calculations.

All of that gear sits directly beneath the typing deck. The entire unit measures 14.1 by 4.7 inches, stands 0.7 inches thick, and weighs 1.49 pounds. The layout includes low-profile keys, a full number pad, traditional function buttons, and a dedicated Copilot key. While the form factor resembles low-cost hobbyist boards like the Raspberry Pi 500, the engineering inside is built around enterprise serviceability: users can swap out the keyboard assembly, upgrade storage via the internal drive slot, or increase memory down the road.

Port selection remains minimal to preserve the flat profile. There are no full-size USB-A slots and no RJ45 Ethernet jacks anywhere on the chassis. Instead, the machine depends on a primary USB4 line to run display output and power through a compatible USB-C desktop monitor. An extra 10Gbps USB-C connection handles accessories or an auxiliary screen, while wireless networking runs across Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0.

Both configurations are available directly through HP's online storefronts in the US and the UK right now.
