Review on πŸ’₯ MSI Gaming GeForce GTX 1650 Super Gaming X - Dual Fan OC Graphics Card with 4GB GDRR6 VR Ready & DirectX 12 Support by Shawn Reiter

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Budget card with HUGE overclocking potential

I've had this card for a few days now and this is what I found.1. The 1650 Super probably offers the best value for money at the moment. FPS/$ out of the box (without special settings and overclocking). If you're using a 60Hz monitor, pretty much anything you throw at it will run smoothly. Overclocking opportunities are huge. I've increased performance by 10% (110%), base clock by +150MHz and memory clock by +1350MHz (although MSI Afterburner says +1500MHz is safe, I just didn't see any FPS improvement at that speed ). I didn't care about tension at all. So far I've played Fortnite, GTA5, Warzone, CSGO, Division 2 and Starcraft 2 on high and ultra settings at 1080p and they've never dropped below 60 fps (on my max monitor) and the temperatures have never gone above 80 degrees Celsius. When you're not gaming, the fans won't even spin (a built-in feature) and the temperature will stay at or below 60C. I paid $189 this week, which seems a little higher than I expected for a 1650S, but it looks like all computer parts are in demand during the pandemic. I am happy with the purchase.

Pros
  • Overclocked: 1755MHz
Cons
  • Not sure
