For Honor has its own loyal fanbase and this game may be not the most popular one out there but still, there are people that are playing it regularly. Most of them are enjoying the multiplayer experience which means that frames per second are very important in this situation. However, For Honor isn’t a light game – it’s hard to achieve 200+ FPS here unlike DOTA 2 or CS:GO that are rather light on system resources.

We are going to test the GeForce GTX 1650 [40W] and GeForce GTX 1650 [50W] that are mid-range GPUs and they can provide a decent experience in most of the popular games. As we said, For Honor is a bit hardware-taxing so let’s check what these two not-so-expensive video cards are capable of.

Verdict

Just like Overwatch, For Honor looks fine even on Low details. In addition, the FPS difference between Low and Medium isn’t significant, so Medium settings seem like a good choice between visual quality and performance. The two tested video cards don’t have any problems with this game no matter the video settings. Nevertheless, GeForce GTX 1650 [50W] provides a better experience regarding this title – it’s 15% faster than its smaller TGP sibling.
