Performance scores
A 2022 ProBook with 64 GB of RAM, premium-priced without a GPU
The HP ProBook 455 G9 (2022) pairs an AMD Ryzen 5 5625U with 64 GB of RAM and lands at $468, comfortably above the business-class median of about $297. Its one genuine strength is memory (64 GB, 60% above the median, "pro" level); the honest constraint is integrated-only graphics, which at this price makes the config feel specialist rather than balanced.
64 GB of RAM on a recent AMD platform
The Ryzen 5 5625U is a solid 6-core Zen 3 processor that handles office multitasking and developer workloads comfortably, and 64 GB of RAM at a "pro" level is genuine headroom for memory-bound workflows. As a recent (2022) business platform, it should also age better than older siblings.
Graphics are the ceiling at this price
The weak spot by level is graphics performance (integrated only), which at $468 is a real constraint — most buyers at this price would expect some GPU headroom for creative work or light gaming. The strong memory and CPU are wasted on anyone who needs GPU power, so the value proposition depends on the workload.
Depreciation typical of a 2022 model
From a base near $1300, the laptop has depreciated to $468 at roughly 10% per year, with a projected value around $379 in two years — a typical curve for a recent AMD business model.
Pricier siblings and slightly cheaper alternatives
Pricier options include the HP EliteBook 1040 G9 ($536) and HP EliteBook 645 G11 ($531); cheaper alternatives include the HP EliteBook 855 G8 ($417) and HP ProBook 470 G8 ($409), which offer similar AMD business-class hardware for somewhat less.
Bottom line
The ProBook 455 G9 is a premium-priced pick best suited to a memory- and CPU-bound office or developer workflow where GPU power is irrelevant. Buyers who need any graphics headroom should look at a dGPU-equipped sibling or a cheaper AMD alternative — at this price, the iGPU-only config is hard to justify outside the narrow specialist case.
