GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 980 Ti: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 980 Ti

The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER is noticeably faster, around 11% ahead of the GeForce GTX 980 Ti. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER starts at $419 GBP against $700 GBP for the GeForce GTX 980 Ti. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER wins on performance-per-dollar by about 86%. The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER still sits about $260 GBP above its $159 GBP MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER draws just 100W versus 250W for the GeForce GTX 980 Ti, and it also delivers more performance per watt β€” so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Turing architecture on a TSMC 12nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 6GB against 4GB, the GeForce GTX 980 Ti has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER's 4GB can fall short. The GeForce GTX 980 Ti's memory is also faster β€” 337 GB/s versus 192 GB/s (384-bit vs 128-bit bus) β€” which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.

Generation & Longevity

The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER is roughly 4 years newer than the GeForce GTX 980 Ti (Turing vs Maxwell), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 980 Ti or GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER?

The GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER is the all-round winner here β€” it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce GTX 980 Ti if you find it at a steep discount.
