About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 GPU

The GeForce GTX 470 is an end-of-life desktop graphics card by NVIDIA. It launched in Q1 2010 with a suggested retail price of $349. Its GF100 chip that powers the GPU uses the Fermi architecture and is fabricated on the 40 nm process.

This GPU is paired with 1,280 MB of GDDR5 VRAM. Its 837 MHz memory clock and 320 bit interface gives it a bandwidth of 133.9 Gb/s. This impacts how much data it can store, and how fast it transfers the data to and from memory.

The GTX 470 is a dual slot graphics card, taking up 2 PCIe slots. It supports DVI, mini-HDMI 1.3a display ports. This desktop card has a TDP of 215 W. NVIDIA recommends using a power supply of at least 550 W with this card. A power supply lower than this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

The GeForce GTX 470 has the 263rd highest 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 540 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 4.14% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 4,342 score and $349 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 12.44. This is the 92nd best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 GPU

The GeForce GTX 1650 is a desktop graphics card by NVIDIA. It launched in Q2 2019 with a suggested retail price of $149. Its TU117 chip that powers the GPU uses the Turing architecture and is fabricated on the 12 nm process.

This GPU is paired with 4 GB of GDDR5 VRAM. Its 2,001 MHz memory clock and 128 bit interface gives it a bandwidth of 128.1 Gb/s. This impacts how much data it can store, and how fast it transfers the data to and from memory.

The GTX 1650 is a dual slot graphics card, taking up 2 PCIe slots. It supports DVI, HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4a display ports. This desktop card has a TDP of 75 W. NVIDIA recommends using a power supply of at least 250 W with this card. A power supply lower than this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

The GeForce GTX 1650 has the 148th highest 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 540 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 13.00% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 13,645 score and $149 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 91.58. This is the 23rd best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
