NVIDIA to release GeForce GTX 1650 with GDDR6 memory
NVIDIA is set to launch an updated GeForce GTX 1650 featuring GDDR6 memory. MSI models will include 'D6' in their names. No significant changes are expected beyond the memory upgrade.
NVIDIA's manufacturing partners will soon release updated versions of the GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card, swapping the familiar GDDR5 memory for GDDR6.
According to information obtained by VideoCardz, the Eurasian Economic Commission's database revealed a list of previously unknown graphics cards from MSI:
⤢ ВІДКРИТИIt appears that MSI's GeForce GTX 1650 models featuring GDDR6 memory will be distinguished by a 'D6' suffix in their names. This will allow potential buyers to easily identify which memory type is installed:
MSI GTX 1650 D6 GAMING X
MSI GTX 1650 D6 GAMING
MSI GTX 1650 D6 VENTUS XS OC
MSI GTX 1650 D6 VENTUS XS
MSI GTX 1650 D6 AERO ITX OC
MSI GTX 1650 D6 AERO ITX
MSI GTX 1650 D6T LP OC
MSI GTX 1650 D6T LP
Based on current information, the graphics card won't receive any enhancements beyond the memory upgrade, likely to avoid cannibalizing sales of the more expensive and powerful GTX 1650 Super.
In other words, we're looking at the same chip with 32 ROPs, 56 texture units, and 896 CUDA cores.
That said, there's also a rumor circulating about 1024 CUDA cores in the refreshed GTX 1650. However, that seems unlikely.
Unfortunately, release dates and pricing for the GeForce GTX 1650 with GDDR6 memory aren't available yet. However, as soon as details emerge, we'll be sure to provide an update.
