NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Super (Desktop)

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is a high-end desktop graphics card based on the Ada Lovelace architecture. It uses the AD103 chip and offers 8.448 cores and 16 GB GDDR6X graphics memory (256-bit bus with 22.4 Gbits).

The gaming performance is still sufficient for 4k with ultra settings, even in demanding games such as Cyberpunk, but 60 fps is no longer always achieved. With ray tracing, the use of DLSS and possibly reducing the resolution is recommended. In a competitive comparison, the SUPER variant ranks, as expected, between the RTX 4080 and the old 4070 Ti in a competitive comparison.

The AD103 chip is produced at TSMC in 5nm (4N with EUV) and is specified with a TGP (Total Graphics Power) of 285 watts.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Super (Desktop)

The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 Super for desktops is an entry-level gaming graphics card based on the Turing architecture. The chip, which has been named TU116, was introduced in November 2019. The GTX 1650 series does not offer ray tracing and tensor cores, unlike the more powerful RTX 2000 cards (e.g. RTX 2060). Performance is slightly better than with the GeForce GTX 1650 and comparable with the AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT.

There have also been significant improvements in the Turing architecture in terms of the CUDA cores. Float and INT operations can now be executed simultaneously, the cache has been unified and improved, and Adaptive Shading has been introduced. As a result, Nvidia speaks of an up to 50% higher performance per core compared to Pascal.

The new entry-level card benefits from the advantages of the TU116 chip, since the newer NVENC video encoding delivers more performance compared to Pascal.

Nvidia specifies a power consumption of 100 watts TGP (Total Graphics Power) for the graphics card. The TU11 chip is manufactured by TSMC in a 12 nm FFN process.
