NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650

The GTX 1660 might be the entry-level flagship of the latest Turing set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most budget PC gamers. On the other hand, the GTX 1650 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 149. NVIDIA ’s xx50 cards have always been defined by budget prices with performance that knocks on the door of entry-level graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Turing graphics card inside the GTX 1650, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.

Spec for spec, this GTX 1650 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 1050, by boasting 71.2 % more fps. The GTX 1650 has 4 GB RAM compared to the GTX 1050 's 3 GB video memory.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The GTX 1650 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 1050, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti and it really justifies an upgrade. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Fallout 76, Battlefield V, Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Resident Evil 2, Strange Brigade at 63 fps to 74 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 69 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050

The RTX 3060 might be the mid-range flagship of the latest Ampere set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most entry-level PC gamers. On the other hand, the RTX 3050 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 200. The good news is, with the release of the RTX 3050 Ti, the RTX 3050 's price is getting more discount.

NVIDIA ’s xx50 cards have always been defined by entry-level prices with performance that knocks on the door of mid-range graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Ampere graphics card inside the RTX 3050, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. The RTX 3050 is much more expensive than the GTX 1650 as it costs a whopping $ 200. Compare this to the GTX 1650, which came originally at a price of $ 149. Meanwhile, the AMD closest equivalent card is the RX 5500 XT 4GB which costs $ 169.

Spec for spec, this RTX 3050 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 1650, by boasting 63 % more fps. In our synthetic benchmarks, the RTX 3050 blows past the GTX 1650 and, amazingly, even the GTX 1660 as well.

Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 5500 XT 4GB, the RTX 3050 was 40.1 % faster. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 3050 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 1650 and it really justifies an upgrade.

For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Baldur's Gate 3, Armored Core VI, F1 22, Borderlands 3, Anthem at 60 fps to 63 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 61 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play World War Z, GreedFall, Hitman 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Spider-Man Remastered at 63 fps to 68 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 65 fps.

For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Overwatch 2, Valorant at 64 fps to 138 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 101 fps.
