Built for mobile professionals

The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0 inch business laptop running Windows 10 Home 64-bit. It uses a dual-core Intel Core i7-6500U processor with a base frequency of 2.50 GHz and a turbo of 3.10 GHz. The system includes 16GB of DDR3 memory and a 240GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 handles the 1366 x 768 HD display.

Sustained workload behaviour

The U-series processor is designed for efficiency in a thin chassis. Under continuous load the chip will throttle toward its base frequency to manage heat, so extended compiles or large spreadsheet recalculations run slower than the 3.10 GHz burst figure suggests. The 16GB DDR3 configuration helps keep multiple applications resident without swapping to the 240GB SSD.

Display and storage limits

The 1366 x 768 HD panel offers limited vertical space for modern web apps and side-by-side documents. The 240GB NVMe drive provides fast boot and application launch but fills quickly with offline media or large project files. Buyers who need a higher resolution screen or more internal capacity should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How much fan noise and heat does the Core i7-6500U produce under all-day load?

The dual-core i7-6500U runs at 2.50 GHz base and 3.10 GHz turbo, so sustained work keeps thermals moderate and fan speed low for a 14.0" business chassis.

Which display cable or dock must I already own to drive an external monitor?

The EliteBook 840 G3 provides full-size HDMI and VGA outputs, so any standard HDMI or VGA cable works without an extra adapter.

Will my existing DDR3 SO-DIMMs work if I want to reach the 32 GB ceiling?

Yes — the two slots accept DDR3 modules, and the board supports up to 32 GB total, so your current sticks can stay if they match the speed.
