HP EliteBook 840 G3 business laptop

The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0-inch business laptop running Windows 10 Pro. It uses a dual-core Intel Core i7-6500U processor with a base frequency of 2.50 GHz and a turbo frequency of 3.10 GHz. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 handles the 1920 x 1080 FHD non-touch display. The system ships with 8GB of DDR3 memory and a new 1TB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD.

Installation notes and common issues

Memory upgrades use standard DDR3 SO-DIMM modules across two slots supporting up to 32 GB total. The M.2 NVMe SSD is user-replaceable but requires a compatible PCIe drive. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed and activated. Drivers for the Intel HD Graphics 520 and chipset should be updated from the HP support site after first boot to ensure full hardware support.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This configuration suits office workers, students and mobile professionals who need a reliable Windows 10 machine with fast solid-state storage and a crisp 14.0-inch screen. Buyers who want a touchscreen, discrete graphics, more than 8GB of memory out of the box, or a newer operating system should look at other models.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the Intel Core i7-6500U is running at its 3.10 GHz turbo frequency under load?

Open Task Manager in Windows 10 Pro, select the Performance tab and watch the CPU clock speed rise to 3.10 GHz during a heavy task such as video export or a benchmark run.

What accessories are included in the box beyond the EliteBook 840 G3 laptop itself?

The package contains the 14.0" FHD laptop with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit pre-installed, the AC power adapter and the standard documentation; no external mouse, sleeve or dock is supplied.

Should I choose the 8GB DDR3 configuration or upgrade toward the 32GB maximum supported by the two memory slots?

The 8GB fitted is enough for office applications and web browsing; if you run virtual machines or large spreadsheets, adding a second DDR3 module up to the 32GB ceiling will give noticeable headroom.
