GIGABYTE Nvidia GeForce ® GTX 1650 D6 pci_e_x16 WINDFORCE OC 4GD Graphics Card with Integrated 4GB GDDR6 Memory (GV-N1656WF2OC-4GD)

First of all the product was sent to me by Amazon without seal. And it’s not working properly.And this product is non-returnable product. So buy the product at your own expense.Still roast service on amazon. I applied to replace the product but they,
Avoid buying products from Amazon.

Ik heb laatst mijn eerste gaming pc gemaakt met dit product.
Goed voor beginners krijg gewoon 150 fps met een intel i5 9600KF in fortnite met high settings.
Ben er blij mee.

I am going to talk about 4 things here. Direct to the point,

Size / PSU ->

You need 8 Pin (not 6) PSU PCI-E connector from your SMPS. This is a 90w GPU with 300W PSU requirement. Do not even consider using IDE or SATA to GPU 8pin converter. Make sure to have or buy a SMPS or PSU with dedicated 8 Pin GPU / PCI-E power connector.

Secondly, the card is big & heavy, that is a good thing because the heatsink & fans are effective. Check the size with your present cabinet before purchase, as otherwise, you need a new cabinet also.

Gaming ->

This is the starting range of Nvidia GPU family. Very soon stock will run out & next starting range will be at 2050. Anything below doesn’t make sense for actual 1080p performance gaming. All games will run. Low for ultra high end newest title and medium to ultra high for any older title.

Video / Render ->

This is Rev 3.0, you get dedicated video encoding hardware support and full support from Adobe or other video / 3d render apps. Paired with a right CPU / NVMe, workflow or renders are butter smooth. Specially for shorter projects. No, you movie editing time line or such highest end work flow, obviously you need RTX 4090. But social media content creators, wedding editors will be super satisfied.

Heat / Noise ->

Indian summer / ambient temps 35c / non AC room / Stock AMD cooler CPU under a closed Cabinet (DeepCool 30SI) with single exhaust FAN. Heavy gaming or synthetic bench will push the card max 75c. When running AC, card never crosses 70c.

Overclocking ->

I didn’t try so I don’t have any feedback on this. Sorry.

Verdict ->

Apart from 1050, this is actually the only entry level nvidia card in the market. any modern iGPU from AMD or Intel will crush 730 or 1030 so between 1050 vs 1650, I chose this one, and specially this Gigabyte model due to this super heat management for Indian summers.

Overall, I am satisfied with purchase.

Worked as well as a gtx 1050 ti and lasted about a month of gaming and died. Overpriced for the quality of materials.

Value for money. I got it for 11k

Don’t panic if the twin fan stop when windows is launched or for low performance games. It’s a feature.
Good stuff.
