Is The GTX 1650 Super Still a Super Budget Graphics Card?

[@nouryy]

It's still a very capable card but I feel like that 4 gigs of VRAM will hold it back in the future. I managed to get a 1080 Ti for $200 today and I couldn't be happier.

With how much these new gpus "improve" the gpu you bough its a steal for the money you can hold on to it until you have kids 😂 if you dont care about rtx or dlss or until the vram is too low and that wont happen anytime soon considering gpu manufactuers release still 4gb gpus enjoy it my friend 😊

I bought a PC with this GPU around a year ago, and it's run everything I threw at it perfectly, native or emulated. 60 fps 1080p almost everything, even in stuff like rdr2, control, and hitman 3. I'll only upgrade it if I get into pcvr, because for normal gaming it gets the job done perfectly. Super happy with it.

I absolutely love my 1650 super. I got it about 1,5 years ago as part of a pre-built pc with the intention of playing mainly world of warships and Minecraft with it. However, I have been playing a lot of more or less recent AAA titles with it and it was capable of running everything at 1080p with decent settings and good fps. From my experience the VRAM really is only an issue, if the game is actively preventing you from applying the settings if you're exceeding the limit. The actual performance impact is negligible. I don't regret the purchase one bit.

I have this card in my system and I can confidently say that, it is still a very competent card. Also, the cost per frames is insane. But you are right, some games do exceed the VRAM limit and it results in frequent frame drops. Got it a couple of years ago for 200 bucks, can't be happier!

Pleasently surprised by the performance of this thing. Despite me having a decent card like the RX 6600, I'm always interested in videos like this. Pretty sad that Nvidia went the stingy way with the VRAM though, especially since they know all too well that a card like that being released in 2019 should have atleast 6GB of VRAM to keep it better equipped for later games. Very surprising performance though and great video as always

I bought this card in 2020, it has served me well for most things at 1080p 60+ fps and 1440p 30fps to play on the big TV. it has surprised me how well it can run games like red dead redemption 2 at 1080p, reaching 60fps on xbox one x settings from digital foundry, at 1080p ultra graphics (reflections low and high shadows) it runs for like 30-40fps and at 1440p I can run on a mix of ultra-high settings as well with stable 30fps to play on my big tv from my couch, a decent experience for the price, I'm too much of a casual gamer to care about fps, if the game looks clear and beautiful I can handle 30fps just fine with my controller and playing it like a console. I'm still considering switching to AMD soon as I find the lack of VRAM its main limitation, and I really want to get me a card now that could run me my games at 4k ultra settings, even at 30fps, I'm just addicted to cracking every setting in game to the highest to see if it is really that much prettier

This little Dell/OEM 1650 Super is actually built just the way it needs to be. Those bigger cooler models out there (even the Nvidia FE), you are paying for aesthetics, nothing else. Little cooler needed for a 100W GPU. Even a one-fan model can cool it pretty silently. A big heatsink can cool it passively.

A friend had a prebuilt dell and was very kind, sold us this card and we had it for over a year! Don't let the single fan fool you, the dell 1650s is a great little card!

Recently bought a preowned OEM Dell 7040 MT on eBay and slapped a 1650 Super in it. The stock PSU in the 7040 cannot safely handle much more wattage than the 100W of the 1650 Super, so this was about the fastest option available without having to upgrade the PSU as well. Ended up being a great value budget 1080p gaming PC for anyone with a limited budget, like a kid looking to get into esports or even 60 FPS AAA titles in 1080p/low-to-medium settings. I spent a total of 180 dollars for the 7040 MT with an i7- 6700, 16 GB DDR4, the 1650 Super and a SATA 15-pin to 6-pin PCIe adapter. Temps are surprisingly good despite the poor airflow in the 7040 case, but I will probably go ahead and spend another 20 dollars to modify the case and add a fan or two. Dremel time.

The thing was a solid 1080p medium 60fps card in almost any game, with some higher end games maybe needing some tweaks, but you pointed that out anyways. If I hadn't come into having the spare cash to buy a 3060 for 144fps gaming I'd still be using it. Sold it to a friend and it's still doing a solid job for him. Very recommended.

(Rust, ESO online, CS go, PUBG, Destiny 2 etc.) Only noticeable problems I've encountered were textures not loading in fast enough or not at all when the GPU hits past the 4gb VRAM mark, (in rust only' could be Rust's game engine, not sure) had micro stutters where the GTX 1060 (even at lower fps) had none but also took a few sec to render in larger bases and stuff. I still prefer my 1650 super over the 1060 6gb as I'd rather have the higher frame rate. I mainly play Rust, great game and the super gives me around a solid 80 to 100+ fps at 1080p med'ish. Would be a great video if you can make a comparison video between the 2 cards, since I'm limited to a few games. Would like to see how the 1060 6gb would stack up to the super when running cyberpunk.

I bought my 1650 Super for about $150, new, in Feb 2020 (just in time!), when the RX 580 was going for similar money, as well. The 1650S spiked up to $500 during COVID. I'd still say $150 is what the card is worth, I wouldn't spend more, especially not used. As you saw, it performs well on older games and more story based PVE stuff like Elden Ring. It starts wheezing hard when you throw newer FPS online titles at it, it's not going to push 1440p or high refresh rates very well, 1080p 60FPS Medium Settings is its sweet spot. It's a fantastic cheap card for the strategy gamer, things like Civilization/Cities Skylines/Transport Fever 2 are a great fit for the 1650S. Use it for a budget build where you spend more on other components but cheap out on GPU, expecting to upgrade it later. It's a good card to use in a cheap rig you build for a kid to play Fortnite in Performance Mode. If you must buy one used, though, consider getting a 1660ti, instead, the price won't be hugely different ($150ish used right now instead of $100ish for 1650S) but the 1660ti has a LOT more power, it was the midrange king. If you can't get the 1650S for less than $150, you're better off stretching for a new RX6600/6600xt. The cards are holding value, but obviously dropping prices fast on eBay right now.

[@spartaninvirginia]

My 1650Super is held back by my 4690S. But it's still a good card for my use. It runs my couch co-op gaming system, which is attached to a 1080/60hz tv.

[@DanielCardei]

I quite fancy those LP models. I like to stick it in small cases 👀

[@ifox100]

I know it's not the super but I have the low profile 1650 running in a SFF optiplex with an i7 4790 and 16gb ddr3. It makes a great living room pc :)

[@KapiteinKrentebol]

Lol, when I saw that card I thought it was one of those I bought a RTX 4090 on Wish videos. I didn't know these plain cards are still made.

[@TheSpotify95]

That looked like a good performing card, though I'd be hesitant to use a 4GB card as a primary card for much longer into the future, due to the reasons that you mention in the video. 4GB could prevent you from using higher settings options, whereas a 6GB or 8GB VRAM card would prove to be better. Speaking of, since you mention the GTX 1060, I'd only recommend the 6GB variant of the card - as 3GB of VRAM isn't enough nowadays.

[@peterpan408]

When a gamer says 1060, they mean the 6GB version.. Just like they mean the GDDR5 version of the 1030 when they say 1030, and not the DDR4 version 🤮

[@youtubeshadowbannedme]

6GB is kind of lacking too

[@Aigle662frileux]

@@youtubeshadowbannedme 6 gb ddr5 is kinda mid 💀

[@costi2596]

Hello :) It should be interesting to check out the gtx 980 standart and ti aswell.

[@synth_storm5983]

The differences beetween low, meduim and high on elden ring in my opinion are rather minimal. On some settings there is a slight noticeable difference and in general going from low to high settings on elden ring doesn't have much of a performance hit from my experience.

[@markaz2kk]

I was lucky to find a 1660ti oc a few years back. Plays all games well.

[@Blind-Ambition]

I ended up going for an RX 570 over the 1650 super, for a single reason: I didn't have to wait for one to arrive from CeX in the, quite frankly, unreliable Post and my local store had a 4GB Asus Strix RX 570. Got a cheap MSI Nightblade (yes, I know...) MI3 in an eBay auction, and the 570 just about fit the power ceiling.

[@JeffWaynee]

I have a Gigabyte 1650 Super, great card that I currently have in my second gaming rig where it's matched with an i7 6850K.

[@goadog7666]

I have one in my rig and it's great. Got it at a bad price though.

[@gamergod9182]

I've been using a 1650 Super since early 2020, and the 4GB is really starting to become a big bottleneck, not just due to the amount but just the relatively low memory bandwidth. The GPU itself can clearly deal with most stuff as long as texture and shadow res are set relatively low. Unfortunately, there is still no suitable replacement in the sub-€250 range, even on the used market.

[@TedPhillips]

1650s mem can OC pretty well, which can help offset the narrow memory bus.

RX 6600 is 200 USD now.

[@alinzelnan]

@@TedPhillips I would first check how good the cooling of the VRAM is in that case, the Dell model looks like it may not even have thermal pads connecting the VRAM to the heatsink and the card is already thermal-throttling for the core.

[@TedPhillips]

@@alinzelnan true, but I assume most people don't have the desktop OEM prebuilt editions though. My remark wasn't directed at the Dell card specifically. It's good to point out of course.

[@alinzelnan]

@@TedPhillips You're right, I just thought of the video in that regard. My GTX 1060 also had some good performance increases when overclocking the memory, newer generations seem to be very much at the limit already.

[@brfcitizen]

The mobile version of that card has gottem me through college and it's still kicking ass, paired with an i5-9400H and 16gigs of DDR4.

[@RandomGaminginHD]

Awesome

[@Po_goes_brrr]

My 1650 super was great, but the 4gb of vram really killed it for me, most my games were vram limited but the card still had plenty of power to it, switched to a rx6600 with 8gb vram and couldn't be happier

[@hateoverlove1]

Should I get a RX 6600 for $179.99? New thats listed in Newegg. Upgrading from a GTX 1060 6Gb

[@chillhour6155]

Yes, great deal for a ton more performance, you'll get up to the double the performance of a 1060, so a really good upgrade

[@dangerotterisrea]

I have a pc in bits that was struck by a surge, this card and 32gb of ram and it looks like it would be an absolutely great PC to have by the TV

[@fairycat]

thanks for review

[@Officer_Boat]

Found one of these on Craigslist for $65 today. Seem like a decent grab? I currently have gtx 950 and really don’t have the budget for anything new.

[@immortaljellyfish1051]

I've had mine for 18 months and it's very good generally. Only problem is it's 4gb vram won't cut it on steam vr. I think a 6gb version would have been an instant classic

[@joey_f4ke238]

Having tried this card back when it launched i can say that it's essentially a gtx 970 with half the power draw, i got more or less the same performance of my 970 with heavy oc and a close to 200w power draw while being just under 100w

[@iikatinggangsengii2471]

no even regular 1650 is better than 970

[@everyneed3959]

I have a 965m and the 1650 super is literally 200% faster than the 965

[@monkeyman767]

I got myself one of these about a year or so ago to replace my failing 760, and honestly it's brilliant, it still holds up well I think, it's rare I have to lower the graphics too much in games and with FSR it's still keeping up with what I want to play . I'll probably replace it soon enough mind you but for what it is, I love it

[@xbeast7585]

Very Nice Bro Keep It Up

[@RandomGaminginHD]

Thanks

[@radhisghaier6394]

I built a pc around this card (pny single fan variant) back in the start of 2021 (before the crazy shortage hit my country exactly by a month ) With a i3 10100f 16gb 3000mhz patriot viper steel ram in dual channel And i played every game on it no problem Wether its a native pc game or emulated I'am also glad that 60 fps is achievable in cyberpunk Last time i tried it in version 1.3 it wasn't even able to hold 30 in the city at the lowest settings I can achieve these frame rates in it now right? Also hopefully hogwarts legacy is playable on this gpu too (highly likely it isn't tho :( )

[@martinking994]

Really competent card, the memory is good for a 1000mhz overclock too! Really helps some games get that 60fps.

[@RandomGaminginHD]

Oh cool I’ll have to try that

[@martinking994]

@@RandomGaminginHD Yeah, it's to do with the memory being gddr6 but only being clocked to 6000 mhz. Therefore, overclocking to 7000 mhz is in line with the memory spec. Hope that makes sense!

[@kai_444]

@@martinking994 yup, i overclocked mine to 7000mhz too, stable since the day i bought it. i also applied a 150mhz overclock on the GPU core.
