The Pyra design aims for modularity and is therefore separated in three PCBs: CPU board (CPU, RAM and storage), mainboard (ports, Wifi and Bluetooth) and the display board. The replaceable CPU board allows a potential future upgrade of CPU and RAM. The Pyra can be easily disassembled with screws and is therefore repairable and modifiable.
