The price is not the point, and the performance is not the problem. What is the purpose of the GeForce GTX 1630?
No one could have imagined that when the GeForce RTX 30 series in the hands of AIC was full, NVIDIA actually brought out its GeForce GTX 1650 sibling, the Turing-based GeForce GTX 1630, which was released in April 2019. For the launch of the GeForce GTX 1630, we can only speculate that it may be due to the discontinuation of GDDR5 memory, so that NVIDIA needs to launch another product to meet the needs of this price range.
The GeForce GTX 1630 and GeForce GTX 1650 are siblings because they are both TU117-300 chipsets in the Turing architecture, but the difference is that NVIDIA has castrated some of the GeForce GTX 1630’s specs.
As mentioned earlier, GDDR5 has been discontinued, so GeForce GTX 1630 4GB adopts GDDR6 memory configuration, but unfortunately the memory bandwidth and memory interface of this entry-level graphics card have not been improved because of GDDR6, but 96GB/ The bandwidth and 64 bit interface of the s are much lower than the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with GDDR5 memory.
The memory specifications are no longer comparable to the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, so don’t expect the performance of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1630 4GB GDDR6.
NVIDIA does not give a suggested selling price for the GeForce GTX 1630, and it is up to AIC partners to calculate the market price at their own cost; the suggested selling price of the GeForce GTX 1650 4GB GDDR5 memory is $149, while the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB GDDR5 was originally suggested for $139.
