Question Which one should I go for GTX 1060 or GTX 1650

[Mayank.mayur]

Hello guys,

I am upgrading my GPU and confused that which graphic card should I go for whether 1060 or 1650..?
Please help me to get a decent choice.

There's no such thing as 1650 u mean the 1660Ti, the 1660Ti is much better and faster than the 1060.

EDIT: There is also the 1660 for around 220$ on amazon from gigabyte, still faster than the 1060 either ways, but a little bit more pricey.

Also you should be mentioning your part's and also the PSU with the model and how many year's has it been in service and the brand.

Bruh the GTX 1650 got released today lol. 1650 Ti is otw. As for the OP, which 1060 do you have in mind, 3GB or the 6GB ? As of today, both 1060s are faster than the 1650, sgb being the slight one.

Mate it was released today yeah, but shipping it according to amazon starts on 28th of this month, by the time that GPU starts shipping he would've already bought a gpu and got it and installed it probably.

There's a chance he's not in the US. Like I live in the SEA, and all the retail stores already have the 1650s in stock as of today.

Plus he could go for a 1660ti and pay around 230$ ish while the 1060 6gb will cost 369$.
Some people don't have that high of a budget for a graphic card.
None the less the 1660ti is better than the 1060 if you look at benchmarks and such.

You are right, the 1660 Ti is a level above 1060 but it's not $230 lol, that's the 1660.

Eitherways its still better value instead of the 1060 or 1650, hes better off buying the stock 1660 and overclocking it eitherways.

I am from India and 1650 Zotac version is available on Amazon India. I am looking for a GPU with good performance and also cheap one.

And yeah, GTX 1650 being the latest GPU and 1060 3GB the old one.. which GPU beat overall.

 

[iMatty]

Well the 1060 is faster than the 1650, so if you can afford the 1060 then go with the 1060 instead its much better than the 1650.
And whats your PSU model? wats as well? and how long has it been in service?

Ny Power Supply Unit umm don't know but but limit is 600 watts and I'm using it for a long time.. about 5-6 years..

The 1060 is a better choice. But with a 600W PSU, unless absolutely wanting a nVidia card, I would also look at the RX570 and RX580. Depending on the pricing where you live, both could offer a better performance/price ratio if it's what you're looking for.

we will need more then that to determine if the PSU is good enough like the make and model. if its some kind of generic brand power supply then i wouldn't recommend using a new GPU with it. if its a known reliable bran then you may be able to get away with using it

 

[iMatty]

Exactly, if the power supply is not a known brand and its already been used for 5-6 years which is pretty old.
You might need to get a new power supply before buying that graphic card so you don't accidentally kill it.
