HP EliteBook 840 G3 14.0" FHD i7-6600U 8GB 240GB SSD No OS

14-inch FHD business laptop for self-managed OS

This HP EliteBook 840 G3 delivers a 14.0-inch 1920 x 1080 non-touch display driven by an Intel Core i7-6600U dual-core processor reaching 3.40 GHz turbo. It ships with 8GB DDR3 memory and a new 240GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD. No operating system is installed, so the buyer must provide and configure their own Windows or Linux environment. The integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 handles everyday visual tasks.

Verify memory ceiling

The system supports up to 32 GB across two slots, so confirm whether the existing 8GB configuration meets your workload or if an upgrade is required. Ensure you have installation media and valid licences for your chosen operating system, as none is supplied. Check that your essential applications are compatible with the integrated graphics and the 6th-generation Intel platform. No HDD bay is present, limiting storage expansion to the single M.2 slot.

Suits IT teams and developers who build their own

Buyers who want a lightweight 14-inch chassis with a fresh NVMe drive and the freedom to install any OS will benefit. Those needing a pre-loaded Windows licence, dedicated graphics for heavy rendering, or more than two memory slots should look elsewhere. The 240GB capacity may also restrict users with large local datasets or multiple virtual machines.
