NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti
Better figure, where one is clearly better
| NVIDIAGeForce GTX 1650 | NVIDIAGeForce RTX 5060 Ti | |
|---|---|---|
| Overview | ||
| Released | April 2019 | April 2025 |
| Performance | ||
| Chip maker | NVIDIA | NVIDIA |
| Architecture | Turing | Blackwell |
| Shader cores | 896 | 4,608 |
| Boost clock | 1,665 MHz or 1,590 MHz | 2,570 MHz |
| Architecture | NVIDIA GPU specification baseline; the photo shows PNY's original stock-clock GDDR5 Single Fan board. The first-sale date is for the original GDDR5 model; a maker first-sale date for GDDR6 was not established. | NVIDIA reference GPU specifications; photo illustrates an ASUS DUAL partner cooler. The image does not establish its memory capacity or factory overclock. |
| Ray tracing | No hardware RT Cores | Fourth-generation RT Cores; 72 RT TFLOPS |
| AI cores | No Tensor Cores | Fifth-generation Tensor Cores; 759 AI TOPS |
| Upscaling and frame generation | No NVIDIA DLSS support | DLSS 4.5 with Super Resolution, DLAA, Ray Reconstruction, Frame Generation, Multi Frame Generation and Dynamic Multi Frame Generation |
| Base clock | Original GDDR5 is 1,485 MHz; GDDR6 is 1,410 MHz | 2.41 GHz |
| Memory | ||
| Video memory | 4 GB GDDR5 or 4 GB GDDR6 | 16 GB GDDR7 or 8 GB GDDR7 |
| Memory bus | 128-bit | 128-bit |
| Memory bandwidth | 128 GB/s or – | 448 GB/s |
| Memory detail | PNY publishes 8 Gbps and 128 GB/sec for GDDR5; its GDDR6 PDF gives 12 Gbps but labels its bandwidth figure as Gbps, so numeric GDDR6 bandwidth is omitted. | 16 GB or 8 GB of GDDR7; both versions have the same GPU specifications; stock PNY cards specify 28 Gbps and 448 GB/s on both capacities |
| Connections and power | ||
| Board power | 75 W (better) | 180 W |
| Interface | PCIe 3.0 | PCIe 5.0 |
| Display outputs | PNY's pictured GDDR5 Single Fan specification lists DisplayPort 1.4 and DVI-D. Its GDDR6 Dual Fan PDF conflicts internally, listing HDMI 2.0b in the features and HDMI 2.1 in the table; check the selected board. | 3 × DisplayPort 2.1b (UHBR20), 1 × HDMI 2.1b; up to 4 displays; HDCP 2.3 |
| Maximum resolution | 7680 × 4320 on PNY's specifications | 4K at 480 Hz or 8K at 165 Hz with DSC |
| Power connector | NVIDIA's current comparison table lists one 6-pin for both revisions; PNY's pictured stock GDDR5 card explicitly needs no auxiliary connector, while its GDDR6 Dual Fan needs one 6-pin. | 1 × PCIe 8-pin cable, or a 300 W or greater PCIe Gen 5 cable (adapter in the box) |
| Recommended power supply | NVIDIA specifies 300 W; requirements depend on the system and partner card | 600 W |
| Slot width | PNY's pictured GDDR5 Single Fan and GDDR6 Dual Fan are dual-slot designs | – |
| Size (reference card) | No retail Founders Edition; pictured PNY GDDR5 Single Fan is 1.61 × 6.22 × 4.92 inches. PNY GDDR6 Dual Fan is 188.3 × 115.1 × 39.3 mm. | – |
| Video encode and decode | NVIDIA identifies the original encoder as Volta; GDDR6 cards can have Volta or Turing encoders depending on whether the GPU is TU117 or TU106/TU116. PNY specifies PCIe 3.0 x16 for both pictured/reference partner designs. | 1 × ninth-generation NVENC, 1 × sixth-generation NVDEC; AV1 encode and decode |
