Compact business laptop
The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0 inch HD laptop built around a dual-core Intel Core i5-6300U processor that runs at 2.40 GHz and can reach 3.00 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 16GB of DDR3 memory and a 240GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit comes pre-installed, so the machine is ready for office productivity, web browsing and light multitasking out of the box.
Integrated graphics and storage
The Intel HD Graphics 520 handles the 1366 x 768 non-touch display without a discrete GPU, keeping power draw low for mobile use. The 240GB NVMe SSD replaces any mechanical drive, cutting boot and application load times compared with a traditional hard disk. No additional storage drive is included, so users who need more capacity must add a second drive themselves.
Simple memory upgrade path
Two memory slots are available and the system supports up to 32 GB total, allowing a straightforward RAM upgrade if 16 GB becomes a bottleneck. The M.2 SSD is already installed, so there is no drive caddy to fit. Buyers who want more storage or a touchscreen should look elsewhere, as this unit has neither.

Questions about this item
Can the 16 GB DDR3 memory be upgraded later?
The laptop has two memory slots and supports up to 32 GB, so the existing 16 GB DDR3 can be expanded by adding another module.
What limits performance first during long workloads on the i5-6300U?
The dual-core processor reaches its 3.00 GHz turbo ceiling quickly, so sustained heavy tasks are constrained by core count and thermal headroom.
How loud and hot does the EliteBook 840 G3 get when running all day?
With Intel HD Graphics 520 and a 14.0 inch chassis, the fan stays audible but moderate while surface temperatures remain comfortable for desk use.
