Ready-to-use business laptop

The HP EliteBook 840 G3 arrives with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit already installed and a fresh 500 GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD. An Intel Core i5-6300U dual-core processor runs at 2.40 GHz with a 3.00 GHz turbo frequency. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 handles the 14.0-inch 1366 x 768 HD panel. Eight gigabytes of DDR3 memory are fitted across two slots.

Silver chassis with everyday connectivity

The silver finish resists fingerprints in daily office use. A 14.0-inch non-touch display keeps the lid profile slim for bag carry. Built-in Bluetooth and a webcam support video calls without extra peripherals. The M.2 NVMe PCIe drive slot is occupied by the new 500 GB SSD, leaving the second memory slot free for a future upgrade to 32 GB total.

Practical limits of the platform

The 1366 x 768 resolution restricts on-screen workspace compared with higher-density panels. DDR3 memory caps upgrade speed and capacity at 32 GB across two slots. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit will reach end of support, so an OS migration will be required. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 suits productivity but not modern 3D workloads.

Questions about this item

What does the M.2 NVMe PCIe interface cap the 500GB SSD at in practice?

The M.2 NVMe PCIe drive delivers solid-state speed for the operating system and applications, limited by the 6th-generation platform's PCIe lane allocation.

What physical space does the 14.0-inch EliteBook 840 G3 chassis need for the second memory slot?

The laptop provides two DDR3 slots supporting up to 32 GB total, with one slot occupied by the factory 8 GB module.

How is the fresh Windows 10 Pro 64-bit image installed on the new M.2 drive, and what step do people skip?

The OS arrives pre-loaded on the 500 GB NVMe SSD; the step users miss is completing the out-of-box setup before joining a domain or encrypting the drive.
