HP EliteDesk 705 G2 Repair — your questions answered
How much does it cost to replace the power supply in an HP EliteDesk 705 G2?
A new 180W or 250W unit with fitting typically ranges from $145 to $195. We test the motherboard for shorts first so you only pay if the PSU is confirmed faulty.
Can you upgrade an EliteDesk 705 G2 to Windows 11?
Yes. We fit a supported Ryzen APU or add a TPM 2.0 module if needed, then perform a clean Windows 11 install. Most machines meet the requirements after the upgrade.
Is it worth repairing an EliteDesk 705 G2 or should I buy a new PC?
If the fault is the PSU, SSD or RAM the repair cost is usually under $200 and the machine will run another three to five years. Motherboard replacement pushes the decision toward replacement.
How long does a data recovery and SSD upgrade take on this model?
Cloning a 500GB drive to a new SSD takes two to four hours in our workshop. We return the machine the same day with the original drive secured for you.
Do you offer onsite repair for the EliteDesk 705 G2 in regional areas?
Yes. Our technicians travel to homes and offices across Australia. Onsite surcharge applies outside metro areas; remote diagnostics are available first at no extra cost.
