14" FHD business laptop

The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0 inch Full HD notebook built for office work and mobile professionals. It runs Windows 10 Home on a dual-core Intel Core i5-6300U processor with a base speed of 2.40 GHz and a turbo frequency of 3.00 GHz. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 drives the 1920 x 1080 non-touch display. The system includes 8GB of DDR3 memory and a new 240GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD.

Memory slots and OS version

Before ordering, confirm that the two memory slots meet your upgrade plans, as the board supports up to 32 GB of DDR3. The laptop ships with Windows 10 Home 64-bit installed, so verify that your software licences and peripheral drivers are compatible with this operating system. The 240GB NVMe SSD is the only internal storage device, so assess whether that capacity fits your local file needs. No mechanical hard drive is present.

Sustained workload behaviour

Under continuous load the dual-core CPU will operate at or near its 3.00 GHz turbo frequency while the integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 handles visual output. The cooling solution is designed for typical business productivity rather than extended rendering or compute tasks. Battery life during heavy use will be shorter than light browsing, and the 240GB SSD maintains consistent read and write speeds without thermal throttling.

Questions about this item

Does the box include the 240 GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD already installed, or must I buy storage separately?

The 240 GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD comes fitted inside the laptop, so no separate drive purchase is needed.

Should I choose the 8 GB DDR3 configuration or look for a 32 GB upgrade?

The unit ships with 8 GB DDR3 in two slots; the board supports up to 32 GB if you add modules later.

What does the 2.40 GHz base and 3.00 GHz turbo mean for everyday workloads on the i5-6300U?

The dual-core processor runs at 2.40 GHz normally and can reach 3.00 GHz on short bursts for snappy office tasks.
