Asus Phoenix GeForce GTX 1650 4GB Graphics Card [PH-GTX1650-O4GD6]

It's good if it works. I never gamed on it, and I didn't abuse it. I use it lightly and it died today. UPDATE 11/23/2020 (few weeks after leaving my 2 star review): The RMA process went okay. I received a replacement unit which might be a refurbished unit, however, I am not experiencing any issues so far. The RMA process took only a few days after they received my dead GTX 1650. I did have to pay the price of shipping from FL to Indiana and extra for a box made for fragile items (I used UPS), however, it was either that or throw out the entire unit. Luckily I didn't get any issues from the ASUS repair center from the location. Keeping my fingers crossed that it lasts at least a few more years. UPDATE 11/24/2020 (IT DIED AGAIN TODAY. WOOOOW.

I checked the serial number from my refurbished unit, and it seems like the new serial number matches with a different product on Asus's website. This is the last time i'm buying from Asus.)

Best card for the $ to enjoy while the world figures out the next platform or if gpu's are even going to be obsolete sooner than '25. A reasonable compromise to a 1660 Ti which is almost max for budget pc's and budget mb's can handle power wise. Biggest bang for the buck the Asus 1650 OC is really hard to beat.

I bought this to replace my 3GB GTX 1050 because I wanted the best 75W no-connector card available for Flight Simulator and eventually Cyberpunk. As expected, in benchmarks about 50% better than my 1050, and seems to maintain slightly cooler temperatures. For my purposes, it's as good as I hoped, with much more stable framerates in Outer Worlds at high settings, rock-solid FPS in Overwatch, and even Flight Simulator playable at 25 FPS or so at high settings. (All games at 1680x1050.) A note about the build quality: I've never had an ASUS card before but it seems very well-made so far. It looks fantastic, and the shroud is actually a bit thinner than two slots (even though the bracket is two), making a very comfortable fit in my machine even though there's a sound ... MoreI bought this to replace my 3GB GTX 1050 because I wanted the best 75W no-connector card available for Flight Simulator and eventually Cyberpunk.
