Gaming nowadays requires next level hardware, a lot has changed in the past few years. Gamers are not just gamers, they are now “Streamers”. So the requirement to build a precise PC that is built with hardware within a suitable budget without compromising performance is a tedious task. Especially when it comes to choosing the right graphics card that can do it all?

Today we have the Zotac GeForce GTX 1650 Super card for testing, a 4GB GDDR6 128bit Turing architecture GPU that can satisfy your need for a mid-range gaming PC, ideal for 1080p gaming + live streaming side by side. But only with a decent build streaming will be a resource intensive task while playing games at 1080p resolution, a good CPU, sufficient RAM + SSD is a must, driven by a PSU of at least 650W. Thanks to Zotac for providing the GPU, we will focus more on the performance and usability compared to the technical aspects and price factor of the existing 16series model. We tested three games: Borderlands 3, Destiny 2 and Control on PC at max resolution and ran some benchmarking tools to find out how well the Zotac GeForce GTX 1650 Super card can perform.

Zotac Geforce GTX 1650 Super has a dual fan, based on Nvidia Turing architecture, the design is super compact and it is a 4K ready card. Thanks to the Game Ready drivers, many things are optimized on its own, you don't really have to struggle to get the best out of it. Due to its compact design, Zotac Geforce GTX 1650 Super fits well in all kinds of cases. It requires less space and draws power from a single 6-pin connector + the PCI slot. Zotac has built a wide aluminum heatsink into its GTX 1650 Super model for more heat dissipation and the wide dual fans maintain a decent airflow. I played multiple games at 1080p with screen recording via Geforce Experience.

As an example, I recorded a 27-minute Destiny 2 gaming video at 1920×1080 resolution (high settings) which easily compiled a 8.04GB video. The quality of the screenshot is great and it is barely noticeable. I am using a Kingston 480GB SSD, where the read/write speed is much higher compared to regular hardware, which contributes a lot to such performance.
