GeForce GTX 1650 Ti vs GeForce GTX 970 comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1650 Ti beats the GeForce GTX 970 in gaming performance.

The GeForce GTX 1650 Ti has a slightly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that they both have the same amount of memory at 4 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1650 Ti has a significantly lower TDP at 55 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 970 at 145 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1650 Ti is better than the GeForce GTX 970.
