Palit's GTX 1650 Super StormX OC is tiny, and barely longer than your PCIe slot at 16 cm, and has a single-fan heatsink; but looks can be woefully deceiving. This turned out to be the the fastest GTX 1650 Super we tested on launch day, toppling many segment leaders along the way.

Even at 12nm Turing rasterization efficiency is still unmatched. Great little card.

I actually had some colleagues using GTX1650 for low cost CUDA acceleration on their lab PCs. With this price point 1650Super might be worth it too

If the fan speeds were dropped 30% or so this would be a winner. I'm surprised how much better this is than the Zotac which has two fans.

Bought this few days ago. Great performance, but is it normal that it heats up to 83C when gaming? Gpu fan speed is about 50-60%, when I set more it's getting too loud for me and actually I didn't notice significant temperature drop when increasing speed more than that. Also at 100% speed gpu fan sometimes makes a loud crackling sound. Even with open case it heats up to 78-79C. PC case is mini-tower with 1 fan and I know airflow there isn't so good, but still. All reviews of this gpu state that it heats max 60-65C, when I get constant 80C. Also it heats my hard drives up to 50-53C. Could it be something wrong with my gpu fan?

Can you tell me how low can you set the fan and with what program Palit's own Thundermaster or MSI's? Would you recommend this card, does it trouble when not gaming?
