NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 (4GB GDDR5) vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 (4GB GDDR5) – Turing vs Pascal, the showdown

Recently, we were able to try out almost every each of the new Turing RTX laptop GPUs. However, there was a handful of graphics cards that were patiently waiting for their official reveal. Today, we had our first look on the Turing chips, that don’t include RT cores inside. In fact, it is the low-end model – the GeForce GTX 1650. So, naturally, we have decided to place it against the base GTX 10xx GPU.

Specs overview

Let’s start with the good ol’ GeForce GTX 1050. Back in the day it was launched, with its Pascal architecture, it brought unprecedented performance for the Watt. It is built on a 14nm manufacturing process and uses has 640 CUDA cores. Contrary to this, the Turing GPU of GTX 1650 is built on a smaller – 12nm process, while the CUDA count is significantly higher – 1024.

Moving on, both of them have a 128-bit GDDR5 memory with a 4GB capacity, although the GTX 1650 works at 2001 MHz (1752 MHz for the GTX 1050), and this way it has a wider bandwidth – 128.1 GB/s, while the GTX 1050 sticks at 112.1 GB/s. On the other side, they work at around the same clock speeds – 1395/1560 MHz Base/Boost for the GTX 1650 and 1354/1493 MHz for the Pascal GTX 1050.

Benchmarks

As you can see, the GTX 1050 is not even a competition for the cheapest of the Turing options. In raw benchmarks, the GTX 1650 performs up to two times better than its rival.
