Palit GeForce GTX 1650 StormX OC Review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/26/2019 12:36 PM [ 8 comment(s) ]

In this review, we look at the Palit StormX OC edition of the GeForce GTX 1650. It's a product that was designed for users on a budget, the card breathes and oozes that. This OC model comes with a really simplistic single fan cooler in a rather small compact design.

Wow, it really helps to use a sub-$200 video card for reviewing games at Ultra details and at 4K-Ultra details.

It's all the difference when comparing entry level hardware to know which one can run the game at 18.3 fps and which one at 19.1 fps!

Wow that 0.8 fps makes a difference in the overall smoothness of the game bud.

The only interest I see in gaming with a GTX 1650, is for HTPC, like I have below my TV. That said, where are the low profile models ???

I didn't see any 4k testing with these cards--just FHD and QHD. Entry-level hardware is always very slow and is for budget-minded n00bs, mainly, which is probably why nVidia price-gouges on the low end--those folks frequently don't know any better. The problem with these cards is they are not priced competitively--AMD's offerings at these price points blow them away in every performance category & metric and are much superior buys for the money. These are sub-$100 GPUs priced approximately $100 too high, imo. Either nVidia simply doesn't care if it sells any of these, or else they are price-gouging the inexperienced n00bs, as I mentioned. Odd, no matter how you look at it.

Since most cards can do most games @ 1080p at ultra settings, this is what the 1650 should be run at. Yes its near the bottom of the list, but once you lower settings there are too many variables that can muddy up the results. 1080p at ultra settings should be the standard for all GPUs to bench in reviews (imo). If the card does badly in some games, prospective buyers should know how badly. And now we know. There are other "sub-$200" cards in the review (Rx570) and they do well at "ultra details". Not sure where your "4k-Ultra details" comes from, but obviously not from the review.
