HP EliteBook 840 G5 business laptop

The HP EliteBook 840 G5 is a 14.0 inch business laptop with a silver aluminium chassis. It runs Windows 10 Pro on an Intel Core i7-8650U quad-core processor that reaches 4.2 GHz with Turbo Boost. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles the 1920 x 1080 FHD non-touch display. The system includes 16 GB DDR4 memory and a 256 GB SSD.

Installation and common issues

As a complete notebook the unit requires no internal assembly; simply connect power and peripherals. The 8 GB x 2 memory configuration fills both SO-DIMM slots, so any future upgrade means replacing the existing modules. The M.2 storage slot supports SATA or NVME drives, but the supplied 256 GB SSD occupies it. Wireless uses Bluetooth 4.1 and dual-band Wi-Fi.

Sustained workload behaviour

The 15 W ultra-low-voltage CPU maintains 1.9 GHz base clocks during long sessions; Turbo Boost to 4.2 GHz is limited by thermal headroom in the slim chassis. Integrated UHD 620 graphics share system memory and suit office applications rather than continuous 3D rendering. Fan noise increases under prolonged load but the aluminium body helps spread heat across the palm rest.
