CPU Comparison
Above you can see the CPU options and the CineBench and GeekBenck test scores for both laptops, which
gives an idea about what kind of performance difference you may experience between the
HP EliteBook 650 G9 and HP EliteBook 840 G8.
GPU Comparison
GPU is as critical as the CPU for graphic heavy applications and the table above gives a picture of how
the two GPU compares.
FLOPS is a measure of a GPU's performance based on the number of floating-point arithmetic calculations
that the processor can perform within a second.
HP EliteBook 650 G9 has a FLOPS value of 1.43 TFLOPS whereas the HP EliteBook 840 G8 has a FLOPS value of 2.822 TFLOPS. If graphical performance of the laptop is important for your use type, the HP EliteBook 840 G8 may be the better choice between these two setups.
RAM Comparison
With a larger RAM capacity of
8 GB, the
EliteBook 650 G9 offers an advantage for multitasking and resource-intensive applications compared to the
EliteBook 840 G8's RAM capacity of
4 GB.
In addition to RAM capacity, the type of RAM can significantly impact performance, with newer RAM types
often offering higher speeds compared to others. Therefore, selecting RAM types with the latest DDR
number can be a suitable choice based on your requirements.
BATTERY
On the other hand, the
EliteBook 840 G8 features a higher battery capacity of
53 Wh, delivering longer usage time compared to the
EliteBook 650 G9's 51 Wh.
StorageWith a larger storage capacity of 256 GB, the EliteBook 650 G9 provides more space for storing files and applications compared to the EliteBook 840 G8's storage capacity of 128 GB.

If your budget allows, we recommend opting for the largest possible disk size, considering the potential
increase in storage capacity needs in the future. However, please keep in mind the question 'What will the
laptop be used for?' when making this decision.
Of course, you can later upgrade the hard disk capacity by getting a larger disk. However, if your laptop
has only one disk slot, it may not be as straightforward as a RAM upgrade, where you simply add or replace a
module, as moving or cloning files to a new disk may be necessary.
