Need for Speed Heat
In The Need for Speed Heat we are able to play this game at 1080p with the highest “Ultra” game settings enabled. The ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1650 SUPER averages 56FPS, and some areas do drop into the lower 40’s at times. Overclocking greatly helps though, performance jumps through the roof and increases by 14%. That’s the highest advantage of overclocking the video card yet. This game seems to be very GPU dependent. With the card overclocked the game is much smoother and averages above 60FPS.
The ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1650 SUPER provides performance that is 35% faster than the ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1650. That’s also a difference in what is playable. It is not playable on the GTX 1650 at “Ultra” settings, but it is on the GTX 1650 SUPER.
The SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 5500 XT is once again very close to ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1650 SUPER O4G GAMING performance. When we overclock the GTX 1650 SUPER it is 12% faster than the SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 5500 XT.
The Division 2
In The Division 2 we are running the game at 1080p with the highest in-game settings. The performance is borderline playable average 47FPS. Overclocking helps quite a bit, improving performance by 15%, the highest result we’ve seen from overclocking in this review.
The ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1650 SUPER improves performance over the ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1650 by 38%. Once again, it’s the difference between playable and not playable.
The SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 5500 XT is 4% faster than the ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1650 SUPER. It’s not huge, but it does matter by a few FPS while in-game.
The overclocked ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1650 SUPER O4G GAMING is 10% faster than the SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 5500 XT 4G OC video card.
