NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER
Specifications, where the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER sits for gaming, the processor worth pairing with it, and the frame rate the pair returns at every resolution.
Ryzen 5 4500
The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER and the Ryzen 5 4500 return about 15 fps on High at 1440p with neither part wasting the other. A processor slower than the Ryzen 5 4500 leaves the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER idling, and a faster one adds no frames to a GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER at this resolution.

| Manufacturer | NVIDIA |

| Gaming performance index | 18.0 (RTX 4090 = 100) |
What these numbers mean for the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER
On our index the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER scores 18.0, which places it 77th of the 89 graphics cards we track and puts it faster than roughly 14% of them.
The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER and the Radeon RX 590 land on exactly the same index score of 18.0, so on raw throughput the two are interchangeable and the choice between them comes down to memory, power draw and price on the day.
With 4 GB of memory the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER is limited to 1080p and to older or lighter titles. Modern games exceed a 4 GB budget at almost any preset, and running out produces frame time spikes rather than a gently lower average, so the card feels worse than its 18.0 index suggests.
At 100 W the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER is one of the easier cards to power and cool. A modest supply and a standard case will do, and 100 W is low enough to drop into a small build or a prebuilt whose supply you are not replacing.
Released in 2019, the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER is 7 years old and well past the point of being a sensible new purchase, and it is here because plenty of people still run a GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER and want to know what to pair with it or whether to replace it.
GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER frame rate at each resolution
The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER paired with the Ryzen 5 4500 on the High preset with 16 GB of system memory. The card is the limit throughout, so the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER falls the full 59% from 22 fps to 9 fps as the pixel count rises.
| Resolution | Estimated fps | Limited by |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p (1920 x 1080) | 22 fps | GPU |
| 1440p (2560 x 1440) | 15 fps | GPU |
| 4K (3840 x 2160) | 9 fps | GPU |
How the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER compares
6 cards sit within 30% of the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER on our gaming index, running from the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER at +28% to the GeForce GTX 980 Ti at +11%, a window narrow enough that price, memory and power decide it rather than raw speed.
What to pair with the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER, and when to upgrade
Best CPU for the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER
When the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER becomes the limit, the GeForce RTX 3060 8GB is the next step worth paying for: 28.0 on our index against 18.0, a jump of 56%, which is roughly where an upgrade stops being something you have to look at a counter to notice. See its specs.
