The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Review, Feat. Zotac: Fighting Brute Force With Power Efficiency

Shifting gears, we'll look at the compute and synthetic aspects of the GTX 1650. As we've seen the GTX 1660 Ti and GTX 1660 already, we aren't expecting anything too surprising here.
Beginning with CompuBench 2.0, the latest iteration of Kishonti's GPU compute benchmark suite offers a wide array of different practical compute workloads, and we’ve decided to focus on level set segmentation, optical flow modeling, and N-Body physics simulations.
Moving on, we'll also look at single precision floating point performance with FAHBench, the official Folding @ Home benchmark. Folding @ Home is the popular Stanford-backed research and distributed computing initiative that has work distributed to millions of volunteer computers over the internet, each of which is responsible for a tiny slice of a protein folding simulation. FAHBench can test both single precision and double precision floating point performance, with single precision being the most useful metric for most consumer cards due to their low double precision performance.
Next is Geekbench 4's GPU compute suite. A multi-faceted test suite, Geekbench 4 runs seven different GPU sub-tests, ranging from face detection to FFTs, and then averages out their scores via their geometric mean. As a result Geekbench 4 isn't testing any one workload, but rather is an average of many different basic workloads.
In lieu of Blender, which has yet to officially release a stable version with CUDA 10 support, we have the LuxRender-based LuxMark (OpenCL) and V-Ray (OpenCL and CUDA).
We'll also take a quick look at tessellation performance.
Finally, for looking at texel and pixel fillrate, we have the Beyond3D Test Suite. This test offers a slew of additional tests – many of which we use behind the scenes or in our earlier architectural analysis – but for now we’ll stick to simple pixel and texel fillrates.

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
