The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Review, Feat. Zotac: Fighting Brute Force With Power Efficiency
by Ryan Smith & Nate Oh on May 3, 2019 10:15 AM ESTBattlefield 1 (DX11)
Battlefield 1 returns from the 2017 benchmark suite, the 2017 benchmark suite with a bang as DICE brought gamers the long-awaited AAA World War 1 shooter a little over a year ago. With detailed maps, environmental effects, and pacy combat, Battlefield 1 provides a generally well-optimized yet demanding graphics workload. The next Battlefield game from DICE, Battlefield V, completes the nostalgia circuit with a return to World War 2, but more importantly for us, is one of the flagship titles for GeForce RTX real time ray tracing.
We use the Ultra, High, and Medium presets is used with no alterations. As these benchmarks are from single player mode, our rule of thumb with multiplayer performance still applies: multiplayer framerates generally dip to half our single player framerates. Battlefield 1 also supports HDR (HDR10, Dolby Vision).
Without a direct competitor in the current generation, the GTX 1650's intended position is somewhat vague, outside of iterating on Pascal's GTX 1050 variants. Looking back to Pascal's line-up, the GTX 1650 splits the difference between the GTX 1050 Ti and GTX 1060 3GB, and far from the GTX 1660.
Compared to the RX 570 though, the GTX 1650 is handily outpaced, and Battlefield 1 where the GTX 1650 is the furthest behind. That being said, the RX 570 wasn't originally in this segment, with price being the common denominator. The RX 460, meanwhile, is well-outclassed, and the additional 2 CUs in the RX 560 would be unlikely to significantly narrow the gap.
As for the ZOTAC card, the 30 MHz is an unnoticable difference in real world terms.

No they can't. The higher tier RTX cards are not selling well because they're too expensive, and so is the 1650. You're some kind of delusional if you think Nvidia can charge whatever they want.ballsystemlord - Thursday, May 9, 2019 - link
Spelling and grammar corrections (Only 2, good work):"This is where a lot of NVIDIA's previously touted "25% bitrate savings" for Turing come from."
Should be "comes":
"This is where a lot of NVIDIA's previously touted "25% bitrate savings" for Turing comes from."
"Though the greater cooling requirements for a higher power card does means forgoing the small form factor."
Extra s:
"Though the greater cooling requirements for a higher power card does mean forgoing the small form factor."

interesting review, but GTX1650 is too exepnsive according to RX570 (and RX has better performance).If you want to watch more results check this link (results from few services in 3 resolutions and 21 games):

I purchased the Zotac 1650 OC for Rs. 12920 (USD 175.39) and later found out the 1650 super is 30% faster than 1650 and the a measly 3/4% slower than the 1660! Returned and got the 1650 Super Zotac.Rockfella.Killswitch - Tuesday, October 27, 2020 - link
