GeForce GTX 1650 vs GeForce GTX 1060 5GB specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1060 5GB graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 1650 in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1060 5GB 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. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1060 5GB also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1650 has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1060 5GB at 120 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 1060 5GB is faster than the GeForce GTX 1650.
