Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi, I own an Elitebook 840 g1 come with i5-4300U CPU. I started to realize that it is slowing quick a bit. I am planning for an upgrade as the following:

 

1) What are the Intel CPU I can put in?

2) Which SSD should fit in (Sata, Msata or the NVMe?

3) Also, planning for a clean win11 installation.

4) Is it worth the upgrade as the above?

5) What else should I be looking into for my one time off upgrade?

 

Thank in advance for any suggestion.
