The Card

Palit's card is dominated by the large passive heatsink. A backplate is not included, and not a requirement in this price segment, I'd say.


Dimensions of the card are 18.0 x 14.0 cm.


Installation requires two slots in your system. The first photo is a little bit misleading as the heatsink ends flush with the PCIe slot cover, but is actually 2 mm below it.


Display connectivity options include two standard DisplayPort 1.4a and an HDMI 2.0b.


The board does not use any additional power connector. This input configuration is specified for up to 75 watts of power draw.


GeForce GTX 1650 does not support SLI.

Disassembly

Palit is using two heatpipes on their thermal solution, which wrap around the cooler. This heatsink is nearly identical to that of earlier KalmX cards. Thermal pads were added to provide cooling for the memory chips and VRM circuitry, though.
