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 ESTAshes of the Singularity: Escalation (DX12)
A veteran from both our 2016 and 2017 game lists, Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation remains the DirectX 12 trailblazer, with developer Oxide Games tailoring and designing the Nitrous Engine around such low-level APIs. The game makes the most of DX12's key features, from asynchronous compute to multi-threaded work submission and high batch counts. And with full Vulkan support, Ashes provides a good common ground between the forward-looking APIs of today. Its built-in benchmark tool is still one of the most versatile ways of measuring in-game workloads in terms of output data, automation, and analysis; by offering such a tool publicly and as part-and-parcel of the game, it's an example that other developers should take note of.
Settings and methodology remain identical from its usage in the 2016 GPU suite. To note, we are utilizing the vanilla Ashes Classic Extreme graphical preset, which compares to the current one with MSAA dialed down from x4 to x2, as well as adjusting Texture Rank (MipsToRemove in settings.ini). For today, we are also utilizing the vanilla High and Standard presets.
With Ashes, the GTX 1650 continues on trend, solidly slower than the RX 570 yet clearly a step up from predecessor 2GB cards.

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
