HP EliteBook 840 G3 14-inch laptop

The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0-inch business laptop powered by a dual-core Intel Core i7-6500U processor running at 2.50 GHz with a turbo frequency of 3.10 GHz. It comes with 8GB of DDR3 memory and a new 240GB SATA SSD, running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. The integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 drives the 1366 x 768 HD non-touch display, making it suitable for office productivity and mobile professionals.

Sustained workload behaviour

Under continuous load the dual-core processor maintains performance within its thermal envelope, while the integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 shares system memory for visual tasks. The 8GB DDR3 configuration across two slots handles typical multitasking, and the 240GB SATA SSD provides consistent read and write speeds without thermal throttling. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit manages background services efficiently for all-day operation.

Build and connectivity implications

The silver chassis houses a 14.0-inch HD panel at 1366 x 768 resolution in a form factor designed for frequent transport. Two memory slots allow expansion up to 32 GB total capacity for future needs. The 2.5-inch SATA SSD is user-accessible for storage upgrades, while the non-touch display reduces glare in bright environments. Standard business ports support docking and peripheral connections for desk-based work.

Questions about this item

How loud does the fan get when the Core i7-6500U runs at 3.10 GHz for hours?

The dual-core Core i7-6500U stays cool enough for quiet operation during normal office tasks; the fan only spins up noticeably under sustained heavy load.

Does the 8 GB DDR3 memory leave a free slot so I can add another stick later?

Yes, the laptop has two DDR3 slots in total and only one is populated with the 8 GB module, leaving the second slot available for an upgrade up to 32 GB.

Can I keep using my older SATA hard drives with the 240 GB SSD already installed?

The 2.5-inch SATA bay holds the included 240 GB SSD, but there is no second drive bay, so additional SATA drives would require an external enclosure.
