Small-form-factor done right. Nvidia's GeForce GTX 1650 heralds the new Turing architecture in its most price-conscious form. Cards based on this TU117 die retail from $148 (£138), which is some way below the $219 (£199) asking fee for the next level up, the GTX 1660. But as our benchmarks have already shown, performance, at this price point, is middling at FHD and mediocre at QHD. The main reasons are a combination of savage architecture cuts and the presence of the older, price-comparable Radeon RX 570 GPU that's plain faster.

But still, GTX 1650 has merit for those that want an energy-efficient GPU able to fit into a wide range of systems. Quoted with a 75W TDP, it can run without additional power cables, so we see it as a small, unobstrusive graphics primed for SFF PCs. This is exactly how MSI views the GPU, especially in Aero form.
