There aren't any hardware upgrades you can do to your PC to have it meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements.

 

 

If you are interested in installing W11 on your PC as is, watch this video:

 

How to install Windows 11 24H2 on Unsupported PC (Early Access) 2024 (youtube.com)

 

Download the W23H2 ISO file and use that (3rd option).   

 

Download Windows 11 (microsoft.com)

 

24H2 hasn't been released to the public yet. and if you don't have a W11 PC, you can't get the 24H2 Beta version.

So what ur saying is that you cannot replace the 5th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 Processors  with a 8th Generation I-7 on this model HP EliteBook 840 g3.

I'm Sorry I just realized that due to the soldering that is not possible.

I thank you

That's what I'm saying, and I'll go one better...you can't even install an Intel 7th Gen core processor in the model series.
