Purpose-built business laptop
The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0-inch HD notebook powered by an Intel Core i7-6600U dual-core processor running at 2.60 GHz with a 3.40 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 8GB of DDR3 memory and a new 240GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed. The non-touch display offers a 1366 x 768 resolution driven by Intel HD Graphics 520.
Build integration
Two memory slots support up to 32 GB of DDR3 for future expansion. The M.2 NVMe PCIe slot is already occupied by the included 240GB SSD, leaving no second M.2 drive bay. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 handles video output without a discrete GPU, freeing internal space and power budget. Bluetooth and a webcam are built in for peripheral and conferencing needs.
Sustained workload behaviour
The 6th-generation Core i7 U-series chip maintains its 3.40 GHz turbo under prolonged multi-threaded loads within the ultrabook thermal envelope. Intel HD Graphics 520 delivers consistent frame rates for business applications and video playback during extended sessions. The NVMe PCIe SSD sustains read and write throughput for large file transfers without throttling. DDR3 memory bandwidth supports steady multitasking across the 8GB baseline.

Questions about this item
Will the 8 GB of DDR3 memory limit multitasking before the Core i7-6600U reaches its 3.40 GHz turbo?
The laptop ships with 8 GB of DDR3 across two slots and supports up to 32 GB total, so heavy workloads can be accommodated by adding more memory later.
Does the Intel HD Graphics 520 generate noticeable heat or fan noise during all-day use?
Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 shares the CPU thermal envelope, keeping heat and fan activity low compared with discrete graphics solutions.
Are the two memory slots already populated, or is one free for an immediate upgrade?
The system has two DDR3 slots and 8 GB installed; the exact population is not detailed, so checking the service manual or opening the chassis will confirm slot availability.
