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 ESTTotal War: Warhammer II (DX11)
Last in our 2018 game suite is Total War: Warhammer II, built on the same engine of Total War: Warhammer. While there is a more recent Total War title, Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia, that game was built on the 32-bit version of the engine. The first TW: Warhammer was a DX11 game was to some extent developed with DX12 in mind, with preview builds showcasing DX12 performance. In Warhammer II, the matter, however, appears to have been dropped, with DX12 mode still marked as beta, but also featuring performance regression for both vendors.
It's unfortunate because Creative Assembly themselves have acknowledged the CPU-bound nature of their games, and with re-use of game engines as spin-offs, DX12 optimization would have continued to provide benefits, especially if the future of graphics in RTS-type games will lean towards low-level APIs.
The standard Ultra, High, and Medium presets were used with the more graphically-bound battle benchmark.
Rounding out our look at game performance is Total War: Warhammer II. While the GTX 1650 is closer to the GTX 1050 Ti than the GTX 1060 3GB, the subdued performance of the RX 570 brings them near-level.

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
