RX 580 vs GTX 1650 Super

[J Charcole]

As the title says, also in my country they have similar prices so which one should i get

[_I_]

1650s is slightly stronger ~10%

1650s uses alot less power, 100w vs 185w

but both are too low for newer games at 1080p
go for a rx 590 or 1660s minimum

The 1650 super for sure. It's way more efficient.

The reviews I saw put rx580 ahead of the 1650s

I'd still definitely go with the 1650 super. It's more efficient, newer tech with gddr6. Nvidia's drivers are so much better also

You're kind of parroting the masses and sound like an nvidia promo pamphlet, lol.

I own both Nvidia GTX1060/1070 and Rx 580 8GB, drivers aren't an issue on my end .

IMHO 4GB GPUs are passed.

580 8GB ^ just shy of 6GB vram at high presets.

i have a system with a RX-580 and it has no problems playing newer games at high settings at 1080p

thats because HE has to have 8x supersampling with all bells and whistles and all steady 60 fps all the time

honestly they are both great cards if its between rx 580 and 1650 super BOTH 4gb id go with 1650 super. If its rx 580 8gb that may be better for high vram games. the downside to rx 580 is it uses more power and requires a more robust power supply.

One thing for sure is people need to stop using userbenchmark for anything other than comparing the same models of cards ex. how does my rx 580 or 1650s compare to others that have same card

Yeah I know. But I've been burned bad by amd drivers in the past. I'm sure it's better now but amd would have to loan me a gpu first before I would trust their drivers again and pay for one. Eh, that's just me. Never had any troubles with their boards and cpu's.

I also just feel like the 1650 super is just better, ya know? like it doesn't need 8gb. The rx.. it has 8gb and that's the only attractive thing really. It would be interesting to compare them in like a year or two. I'd like to know if the vram amount helps or the efficient tech helps.
I'm probably just turned off by the power consumption of the rx.

While I understand that you may feel a certain dislike for AMD due to your experience, it may be just bad luck, or a combo of hardware that may not work well with AMD drivers. I've been using BOTH ATi/AMD and nVidia for a long time now, started with a 9700 Pro for ATi and a a GF2 MX400 IIRC, and have had both CrossFire and SLi'ed rigs along the way, no real issues with both....perhaps minor game performance issues and such. I'm sure you've heard that a driver from nVidia back then had actually killed some cards, but that didn't deter me from getting nVidia cards.

Right now, I have two AMD cards (RX 6900 XT, RX VEGA64) and a GTX 1080, no issue with drivers from both. My RX 6900 XT would freeze whenever I'd play Metro Exodus with RT enabled (no problem without RT), and with Adrenalin 21.2.1, that issue has been resolved, though undervolting the GPU does result in CTD/freezes.....so, undervolting with RT enabled is a 'no, no'.

As for driver support, both are good now, but there's this refrain from AMD users, it's called 'Finewine'. It has been shown that AMD cards do age well, sometimes showing better performance with the passing of time when compared to their equivalent nVidia counterparts.

Edit - As for OP, as things stand, they both perform similarly, with the GTX 1650 S having a small advantage in most games. So, if OP plays at 1080P, then fine, the GTX 1650 S would perform slightly better and is more power efficient, so it'd be a good choice. My only concern is the VRAM size, 4GB is the bare minimum these days....so, in the future, when more VRAM is required, the GTX1650 Super would fall short.
