NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER vs NVIDIA TITAN V CEO Edition Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data for this comparison is limited to two shared benchmark tests, both of which the NVIDIA TITAN V CEO Edition wins decisively. In the Passmark G3D test, the TITAN V CEO Edition scores 16,988 against the GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER's 10,179. That is a 40.1% margin in favor of the TITAN V CEO Edition, a substantial gap that reflects the raw shading throughput advantage of the Volta-based card. In the Passmark G2D test, which measures 2D graphics and desktop composition performance, the TITAN V CEO Edition again leads, scoring 1,086 versus 749 for the GTX 1650 SUPER, a 31% advantage.

The win count is therefore 2-0 in favor of the TITAN V CEO Edition across the head-to-head suite. However, the broader database averages tell a more nuanced story. The GTX 1650 SUPER has an average benchmark score of 11,047 across all recorded tests, while the TITAN V CEO Edition averages only 9,037. This discrepancy arises because the TITAN V CEO Edition is represented by only two benchmark entries in the database (the G2D and G3D tests), whereas the GTX 1650 SUPER has ten recorded scores, including compute and API-specific workloads. When placed against their nearest rivals, the GTX 1650 SUPER sits at the 50th percentile of all GPUs, while the TITAN V CEO Edition sits at the 45th percentile. The GTX 1650 SUPER's nearest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 550, scores 11,075, which is only 0.2% higher. The TITAN V CEO Edition's nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660, scores 9,022, a 0.2% difference. These percentile positions suggest that despite the TITAN V CEO Edition's dominant head-to-head wins, its limited benchmark coverage and lower average score make it a less consistent performer across the full test suite.

The GTX 1650 SUPER's other benchmark results, while not directly comparable to the TITAN V CEO Edition, provide context for its strengths. It scores 50 in Passmark DirectX 10, 73 in DirectX 11, 45 in DirectX 12, and 148 in DirectX 9. Its compute score in Passmark GPU Compute is 4,477, and it reaches 43,875 in Geekbench OpenCL and 50,519 in Geekbench Vulkan. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 352. These figures show a card that performs adequately across legacy and modern APIs, but the TITAN V CEO Edition's single G3D result of 16,988 indicates a far higher ceiling for pure 3D rasterization.

Where Each One Wins

The TITAN V CEO Edition is the clear winner for raw 3D rendering performance. Its Passmark G3D score of 16,988 is 40.1% higher than the GTX 1650 SUPER's 10,179, making it the stronger choice for graphically intensive workloads such as high-resolution gaming, 3D modeling, and GPU-accelerated rendering. The TITAN V CEO Edition also leads in 2D performance, scoring 1,086 in Passmark G2D versus 749, which indicates faster desktop compositing and 2D application responsiveness. Its memory subsystem, with 32 GB of HBM2 on a 4096-bit bus delivering 868.4 GB/s, far exceeds the GTX 1650 SUPER's 4 GB GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus at 192.0 GB/s, so workloads that are bandwidth-limited, such as large dataset processing or high-resolution texture streaming, will favor the TITAN V CEO Edition significantly.

The GTX 1650 SUPER wins in the context of overall benchmark consistency. Its average score of 11,047 across ten tests is higher than the TITAN V CEO Edition's 9,037 across two tests, and its percentile ranking of 50 against 45 indicates that it performs more reliably across a wider range of workloads. The GTX 1650 SUPER also has a lower power draw, with a TDP of 100 W compared to 250 W, and a suggested PSU of 300 W versus 600 W, making it the more practical choice for systems with modest power delivery. Its smaller physical footprint, 229 mm length versus 267 mm, and its single 6-pin power connector versus the TITAN V CEO Edition's 6-pin plus 8-pin setup, mean it fits into more compact builds with less cabling overhead. For users running legacy DirectX 9 or 10 applications, the GTX 1650 SUPER's scores of 148 in DirectX 9 and 50 in DirectX 10, while not directly comparable to the TITAN V CEO Edition (which lacks those tests), suggest it retains usable performance for older software libraries.

Specification Differences

The two cards differ substantially in nearly every specification category. The GTX 1650 SUPER uses the TU116 chip on a 284 mm² die with 6,600 million transistors, while the TITAN V CEO Edition uses the GV100 chip on an 815 mm² die with 21,100 million transistors. The transistor density is 23.2M per mm² for the GTX 1650 SUPER and 25.9M per mm² for the TITAN V CEO Edition. Both are manufactured on a 12 nm process at TSMC. Clock speeds differ: the GTX 1650 SUPER has a base clock of 1530 MHz and a boost clock of 1725 MHz, while the TITAN V CEO Edition runs at 1200 MHz base and 1455 MHz boost. Memory clocks also differ, with the GTX 1650 SUPER at 1500 MHz (12 Gbps effective) and the TITAN V CEO Edition at 848 MHz (1696 Mbps effective).

The memory configuration is a major differentiator. The GTX 1650 SUPER has 4 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, yielding 192.0 GB/s bandwidth. The TITAN V CEO Edition has 32 GB of HBM2 on a 4096-bit bus, yielding 868.4 GB/s bandwidth. The compute resources are also far apart: the GTX 1650 SUPER has 1,280 shading units, 80 TMUs, and 32 ROPs, while the TITAN V CEO Edition has 5,120 shading units, 320 TMUs, and 128 ROPs. The TITAN V CEO Edition also includes 640 tensor cores, a feature entirely absent from the GTX 1650 SUPER. Pixel and texture rates reflect this: the GTX 1650 SUPER achieves 55.20 GPixel/s and 138.0 GTexel/s, while the TITAN V CEO Edition achieves 186.2 GPixel/s and 465.6 GTexel/s. Floating-point performance is 4.416 TFLOPS (FP32) and 8.832 TFLOPS (FP16) for the GTX 1650 SUPER, versus 14.90 TFLOPS (FP32) and 29.80 TFLOPS (FP16) for the TITAN V CEO Edition.

Power and physical specs diverge as well. The GTX 1650 SUPER has a TDP of 100 W, a single 6-pin power connector, and a suggested PSU of 300 W. The TITAN V CEO Edition has a TDP of 250 W, a 6-pin plus 8-pin power connector setup, and a suggested PSU of 600 W. Both are dual-slot cards, but the GTX 1650 SUPER is 229 mm long, 111 mm high, and 35 mm wide, while the TITAN V CEO Edition is 267 mm long, 112 mm high, and 40 mm wide. Display outputs differ: the GTX 1650 SUPER has 1x DVI, 1x HDMI 2.0, and 1x DisplayPort 1.4a, while the TITAN V CEO Edition has 1x HDMI 2.0 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. Both share the same API support: DirectX 12 (12_1), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The GTX 1650 SUPER has a launch MSRP of 159 USD, while the TITAN V CEO Edition has no recorded launch MSRP.

Architecture Differences

The architectural split is fundamental. The GTX 1650 SUPER is built on the Turing architecture, while the TITAN V CEO Edition is built on Volta. The GTX 1650 SUPER is part of the GeForce 16 generation, while the TITAN V CEO Edition is listed under the GeForce 10 generation despite using a newer architecture. The GTX 1650 SUPER's chip is TU116, which is a Turing variant that omits ray tracing and tensor cores, as evidenced by the null entries for both RT cores and tensor cores in its specifications. The TITAN V CEO Edition's chip is GV100, the flagship Volta die, which includes 640 tensor cores. Neither card has ray tracing cores.

The memory architecture is a key differentiator. The GTX 1650 SUPER uses GDDR6 in a conventional 128-bit configuration, which is typical for a mid-range card. The TITAN V CEO Edition uses HBM2 on a 4096-bit bus, a high-bandwidth stacked memory design that delivers 868.4 GB/s, more than four times the bandwidth of the GTX 1650 SUPER. This is a direct result of the GV100's design, which prioritizes memory throughput for compute-heavy workloads. The GTX 1650 SUPER's 12 nm process at TSMC yields a transistor density of 23.2M per mm², while the TITAN V CEO Edition's 12 nm process achieves 25.9M per mm², a higher density due to the larger die and more complex logic.

The tensor cores in the TITAN V CEO Edition are the most significant architectural feature absent from the GTX 1650 SUPER. These cores are designed for deep learning and AI workloads, providing specialized matrix math acceleration. The GTX 1650 SUPER has no such hardware, relying entirely on its standard CUDA cores for compute. The FP16 performance ratio highlights this: the TITAN V CEO Edition delivers 29.80 TFLOPS at FP16, exactly double its FP32 rate, while the GTX 1650 SUPER delivers 8.832 TFLOPS at FP16, also double its FP32 rate. Both use a 2:1 ratio, but the absolute FP16 capacity of the TITAN V CEO Edition is 3.37 times higher. The production status for both cards is end-of-life, with the GTX 1650 SUPER released on 2019-11-21 and the TITAN V CEO Edition on 2018-06-20. The GTX 1650 SUPER's predecessor is the GeForce 10 series, while the TITAN V CEO Edition's predecessor is the GeForce 900 series; both share the GeForce 20 as their successor.
