Hi:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

 

The supported processors can be found in chapters 1 and 3.  The memory upgrade info can be found in chapter 1.

 

HP ProBook 640 G1 Notebook PCHP ProBook 645 G1 Notebook PCHP ProBook 650 G1 Notebook PCHP ProBook 65...

 

According to chapter 3 of the manual, It looks like the best processor you can upgrade to would be the Intel Core i7-4712MQ, since your notebook has a 15.6" display.

 

You can install 2 x 8 GB of DDR3L-1600 memory in your notebook, so you are already at the max.

 

Have you replaced the mechanical hard drive, and installed a 2.5" solid state drive in your notebook?

 

That would enhance performance considerably if you haven't.
