Affordable entry-level gaming graphics card with quiet and efficient dual-slot Ventus cooling and low factory overclocking. Positioned as an affordable gaming video adapter for building low-cost gaming systems and low-cost upgrades to existing gaming PCs. Unlike its predecessor (GeForce GTX 1650 VENTUS XS 4G OC), this card received a more efficient mid-range GPU Nvidia TU116 (instead of TU117). As a result, the number of universal CUDA cores and texture units increased by 43%. An additional performance boost was provided by the use of progressive GDDR6 memory instead of GDDR5. Thanks to the increased effective clock frequency (12000 MHz vs. 8000 MHz) and the extended 128-bit bus, the memory subsystem bandwidth has increased by 50%. Such a significant upgrade increased the average performan...ce by 20-40% (compared to its predecessor). As a result, the MSI GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER VENTUS XS OC graphics card can provide comfortable gameplay in most popular games of 2015-2020 in FullHD resolution at high or maximum graphics settings. Supports full-featured connection of 4K/8K monitors and VR headsets. It is economical, consumes up to 100 W of energy, is not demanding on the power of the power supply. Due to its short length (180 mm) it fits into compact microATX cases.

Spice up the party

The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER was created to revitalize the low-cost gaming segment and challenge the models based on the Radeon Navi chip. It is designed to play in Full HD resolution with high graphics settings in most modern games, but in the near future it will surely run into problems due to the limited amount of video memory. Although, in its defense, we note that in general, NVIDIA Turing cards deftly juggle a limited number of gigabytes.

Almost like GeForce GTX 1660

In terms of pure performance, it would be more correct to call it a cut down version of the GeForce GTX 1660, rather than an improved GeForce GTX 1650. In fact, NVIDIA pulled off the same feint when they used a cut down version of the GPU from the flagship RTX 2080 graphics card to create the RTX 2070 SUPER, the base frequency of the GTX 1650 SUPER VENTUS is 1740 MHz, the memory bus is 128 bits, instead of GDDR5 memory with an effective frequency of 8000 MHz, GDDR5 with 12000 MHz is used. To cool all this goodness, there is a pair of Ventus coolers with metal styling familiar to MSI fans. The cooling system is noisy within the norm, the small dimensions of the board allow it to be installed in a compact microATX case, and the low power consumption makes it possible to get by with a 350W power supply.

The prospect of manual overclocking

In terms of the ratio "dollar to FPS" this is one of the most profitable options that can now be found on the market. Especially if you add a little firewood manually to a modest factory overclock. The test sample without problems managed to be fired up to 1980 MHz on the core. Surely, if additional power was connected, the numbers would be higher, but it was decided in principle to limit ourselves to a 350 W power supply. Anyway, an increase of around 10% is an excellent result, which helped raise the number of FPS in Metro Exodus from 54 to a psychologically comfortable 60. At the same time, the level of noise and heating of the core hardly increased.
