GTX 1650 Super vs RX 5500 XT: 2020 update!

We measure system-wide power draw from the wall while running the 3DMark Time Spy stress test for 30 minutes.

Finally, power consumption is pretty close between all three cards. The 5500 XTs draw a touch more power than the 1650 Super, but the difference isn't greater than 30W so it's hard to really complain about. Nvidia's GPU is more efficient, but when the margins are so fine, it really doesn't make much difference in the grand scheme of things.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
