Review on 💥 MSI Gaming GeForce GTX 1650 Super Gaming X - Dual Fan OC Graphics Card with 4GB GDRR6 VR Ready & DirectX 12 Support by George Utley

***Update 1/21*** It's been almost a year (since Feb 2020) with the following settings and I haven't had a single crash. Games run very smoothly at 1080p. I've dabbled in crypto mining a bit, but this card isn't for that. Due to the 4GB limit, Ravencoin (RVN) is the only profitable coin that can be mined after paying the stream. When I say profitable, I mean a net profit of 25-30 cents per day. Mining requires a different settings profile: 1) Power Cap = 70% 2) Core Clock = 0MHz 3) Memory Clock = 0MHz 4) Fan Speed = not configurable. At this setting, it shouldn't draw more than 60-70 watts. As I said, I don't recommend using a 4GB or less graphics card (like this card) for mining because more profitable coins (like ETH) have a DAG file larger than 4GB that you store in memory for require the mining.*** Original Rating*** I have a Dell 7020 SFF, I got it and "16x Magnetic Graphics" which came with a 20mm adapter cable. The onboard x16 slot is limited to 35W (according to Dell's tech manual) so I had to use an old 300W PSU that was collecting dust and was used to power the 6-pin external power connector. Having looked and read many reviews of the 1650S from various manufacturers, it was worth it even though this one cost twenty more than the cheapest 1650S. The extra money was mostly spent on cooling. I've run benchmarks and games for over an hour and this card never went above 70C. The fans don't even spin when the GPU is below 55C, unlike the cheaper 1650S which spins constantly and not spinning can be at all. . I checked the OC core clock curve on Afterburner, but the settings were too conservative, so I ran my own benchmarks/artifact tests and error runs instead. I was able to achieve stable Afterburner settings with 1) Power Limit = 110% 2) Core Clock = +160MHz 3) Memory Clock = +1300MHz 4) Fan Speed = not configurable. Has been working for a month with no failures.
