GIGABYTE Launches GeForce GTX 1650 GPU with GDDR6 Memory
NVIDIA has enabled its AIB partners to design a to ship a GeForce GTX 1650 GPU with a twist - a GDDR6 DRAM instead of the regular GDDR5 DRAM. And GIGABYTE is the first to update its GPU offerings. Today, GIGABYTE has launched... exactly all the models it had it already offered? Both of the models, like the GIGABYTE GTX 1650 OC and GTX 1650 Windforce OC, are carrying the same name again, just with a newer memory. The only difference is the box it ships in, which you can see below, that shows a GDDR6 marking and the GPU has a bit different cooler shroud. The amount of memory is still static, remaining at 4 GB, while the speed is now bumped to 12 Gbps. Base clocks of the GTX 1650 OC models are unknown, while the boost is 1635 MHz. For GTX 1650 Windforce OC model, base clock is still unknown, while the boost is 1710 MHz.

MSI and XFX, if you're reading, do take note and proceed in accordance, please!
ZOTAAAAAAAC!!!! * POINTS FINGER *
Edit: too bad that they could not use full fat tu117 die, could have been somewhere near to gtx1060 performance with that config.
Edit2: double edit for double profit...EEC listing looks like having one LP gigabyte:
About the power envelope, I agree that there is a market demand for it, be it slim chassis for the LP versions or the usual Sans-Noise where 75W do require a bulky chunk of metal, but noise is absolutely null the whole time. I'm part of that market :D
See the video:
And here other games on Ubuntu how they work may interest someone:

Let TDP this new card not increase, because then it makes no sense to me.
In addition, the GDDR6 model seems to gain a DVI-D port.
It's a budget 1080p card where you'll need to juggle settings for most modern games just to get a decent experience.
To put it into context, it's significantly slower than the RX570 which has been around for ages and spent the majority of the last 18 months languishing in the clearance sales at $100-120. That brackets the 1650 as a $75 gaming experience and perhaps you can add a bit of extra value because it's a quieter card with lower TDP than the old RX 570.
It barely makes a case for itself against 2016's 1050Ti, which was a pretty underwhelming card itself.
