HP EliteBook 840 G3 for mobile professionals

The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0-inch laptop built for professionals who need a reliable Windows 10 Home device on the move. It runs on an Intel Core i5-6300U dual-core processor with a base frequency of 2.40 GHz and a turbo frequency of 3.00 GHz. The system includes 16GB of DDR3 memory and a 240GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 drives the 1920 x 1080 FHD non-touch display.

Thermals and power in daily use

The 14.0-inch chassis houses the dual-core processor and integrated graphics without a discrete GPU, which helps contain heat during typical office workloads. The 16GB DDR3 memory and NVMe SSD operate with low power draw, supporting cooler and quieter operation. Fan noise stays subdued for standard productivity tasks such as document editing and web browsing. The 64-bit Windows 10 Home environment manages power states efficiently for mobile use.

Bundled software and accessories impact

Windows 10 Home 64-bit is pre-installed and activated, providing a familiar desktop experience with support for universal apps and built-in security features. The 240GB NVMe SSD delivers faster boot times and application launches compared with traditional hard drives. The 16GB DDR3 configuration occupies two slots, leaving no free slots unless a module is removed. The 365-day parts and labour warranty covers hardware defects for the first year.

Questions about this item

How do I install the M.2 NVMe SSD and which step is often missed?

Insert the 240GB M.2 NVMe PCIe drive into the slot at a slight angle, press it flat, and secure it with the retaining screw; the step most people skip is fastening that screw, which leaves the drive loose and unrecognised.

What maintenance or replacement will the 16GB DDR3 memory need later?

The 16GB DDR3 is the maximum the two slots can hold; no further memory upgrades are possible, so future maintenance is limited to keeping the slots dust-free and reseating modules only if errors appear.

What limit appears first during sustained load on the Intel HD Graphics 520?

The integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 shares system memory and thermal headroom with the dual-core i5-6300U, so extended 3D or video workloads hit thermal throttling before the GPU reaches its own ceiling.
