NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
A 75W, slot-powered Turing card built for prebuilt upgrades and small-form-factor boxes. Four gigabytes of GDDR5 on a 128-bit bus keeps it firmly at 1080p medium, but it needs no PCIe power connector at all.
Pros
- Runs entirely on PCIe slot power
- Drop-in upgrade for OEM desktops with weak PSUs
- Turing NVENC video encoder
- Cool and quiet at 75W
Cons
- 4GB of VRAM on a 128-bit GDDR5 bus
- No RT cores and no DLSS
- Struggles above 1080p medium settings
Below average
