MSI Gaming GeForce GTX 1650 128-Bit HDMI/DP/DVI 4GB GDRR6 HDCP Support DirectX 12 VR Ready OC Graphics Card (GTX 1650 D6 Ventus XS OC)

solid card for light weight gaming at 1080p and excellent cooling for the size that it is, great price point great performance. solid material and solid install, graphic quailty is very nice for the type of the card this is, until ready for higher card abilities this is an excellent buy, especailly on a super budget or new game kid or een parent. speed is good cools nicely. memory capacity is sold for what it is. gaming capability is also very good for lite frames and mid settings.

The graphics card arrived in perfect condition, it is new and its packaging is very resistant and well protected. From the first moment it worked perfectly. Good level of fps in performance tests and low energy consumption, it does not need to be connected directly to the power source. I'm not going to use it for gaming, only for video editing in Adobe premiere, the results in the renders were more than acceptable. Excellent value for money (U$S155 at the time of purchase), I recommend.

I purchased the GPU card because the new AI photo editing software REQUIRE a GPU, which my old editing software did not.BUT, my Dell has a LOW wattage power supply, and it is difficult to upgrade the power supply. So I needed a graphics processor card that did NOT need additional power beyond the PCIe buss power. This card solved the problem. It was worrying because ALL the descriptions on the MSI and various other sites lead me to believe that this card needed the additional power. When it arrived, it did NOT have the additional power connector. It would run just with just the buss power.I bought the GDRR6 card, but as it turned out, for MY purposes of photo editing (individual pictures), NOT gaming (continuous video), I probably could have used the cheaper GDRR5 card and saved some money, and not noticed any performance difference.Because I am using it for photo editing, I am not using the GPU hard, and it has been working just fine.

Just in case anyone else is planning the same thing: I have been running a Ryzen 5 2400 APU, with no graphics card. It did pretty well and I could play most games on moderate settings. I chose the 1650 video card because it has pretty low power consumption and was not too expensive. I bought a refurbished one. It said no additional power cable was required, but that's not the case. It has a six-pin socket like many PCI-E cards do. It installed and booted with no trouble. It took about 10 minutes for my PC to automatically find, download, and install the new driver (I did nothing). The APU automatically saw and used the new card. Aaand....Whammo! Every game I have now runs at 60+ fps. What a difference! I never knew it, but I was running under 30 fps on many games.My battery backup says the power load is the same as before. It could be that it takes the same amount of power as the Ryzen GPU, which is no longer used. It might draw slightly more at max load, but in any case you're looking at roughly the same power consumption as with Vega 11 integrated graphics.It's beautiful. Highly recommended for gamers not wanting to spend a fortune on a rig. Note: The refurbished ones do not even come with an anchoring screw. Most of us have a spare one, but in case you don't, you'll want one or two.

This gpu is perfect for the budget build. I recently built a new computer, hoping to put a 3070 in it, but they’re never in stock so I decided try the 1650. It’s been good for most games on high graphics with consistent frame rate. If you like to playing games like rainbow six siege, you’ll get enough frames on high settings to play 144hz.

After using it for almost 2 years , its really good

i got this for my pc and it works great!! i wasn't aware of what bottlenecking was and now 2 months later i do!! (it basically means gpu is too weak for cpu, minimizing gpu and overall performance) this gpu is great if you're not playing gpu heavy games (which i do.) i currently have a ryzen 5600x cpu which is waaayyyy too strong for this gpu. i wish i would've known about the bottleneck before i purchased! if you're not gaming this is a perfect budget gpu but for those who are gaming please check a calculator and do your research before purchasing anything :D

Ok it’s been since I bought my first GPU… and let me tell you. This is the best graphics card to play with your buddies. My CPU:Ryzen 6 3600 which is not a great cpu but can handle its self well I still need to upgrade. But when I upgraded to a GPU which it was this one… it just felt like a new PC… being fr. I recommend a 2050 depending to your specs. But if you are like me, who had a CPU only PC… I recommend this GPU fashow. For any help hit me up on replies I will be answering
