Radeon RX 5700 vs GeForce GTX 1650: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon RX 5700 vs GeForce GTX 1650

The Radeon RX 5700 is dramatically faster, around 114% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1650. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 5700 is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1650 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce GTX 1650 starts at $200 EUR against $426 EUR for the Radeon RX 5700. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Radeon RX 5700 wins on performance-per-dollar. The Radeon RX 5700 still sits about $77 EUR above its $349 EUR MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce GTX 1650 draws just 75W versus 180W for the Radeon RX 5700, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 8GB against 4GB, the Radeon RX 5700 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce GTX 1650's 4GB can fall short.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1650 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 5700 offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.

Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1650 or Radeon RX 5700?

The Radeon RX 5700 is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce GTX 1650 if you find it at a steep discount.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Radeon RX 5700 better than the GeForce GTX 1650?

The Radeon RX 5700 is dramatically faster, roughly 114% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 1650 or the Radeon RX 5700?

Neither is a dedicated 4K card; both are best at 1080p. For 4K you'd want a faster GPU, or lean on upscaling.

Is the Radeon RX 5700 worth the extra $226 EUR over the GeForce GTX 1650?

Often yes — despite the higher price the Radeon RX 5700 delivers better performance-per-dollar here.

Does the Radeon RX 5700 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 8GB (vs 4GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
