GeForce GTX 1650

2019

Why buy it

✅+454.9% higher PassMark G3D performance.
✅Delivers 384.2% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 52.8 vs 10.9 G3D/$ ($149 MSRP vs $130 MSRP).
✅700% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (4 GB vs 512 MB).
✅Less risky long-term buy than Radeon R7 M370: it remains the more sensible modern option while Radeon R7 M370 is already obsolete for modern gaming.

Trade-offs

❌Limited future-proofing: older hardware, 4 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in upcoming AAA games.

Radeon R7 M370

2015

Why buy it

✅Costs $19 less on MSRP ($130 MSRP vs $149 MSRP).

Trade-offs

❌Lower PassMark G3D performance (1,418 vs 7,869).
❌Less VRAM, with 512 MB vs 4 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌Very weak future-proofing: 2015-era hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce GTX 1650 better than Radeon R7 M370?

Yes. GeForce GTX 1650 is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 7,869 vs 1,418 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce GTX 1650 is a 2019 card with no meaningful modern upscaling stack, while Radeon R7 M370 is a 2015 model from an older generation with FSR upscaling. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce GTX 1650 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2019 generation instead of 2015, 454.9% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 4 GB instead of 512 MB, and the stronger feature stack with no meaningful modern upscaling stack instead of FSR upscaling. That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

GeForce GTX 1650 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce GTX 1650 is about 14.6% more expensive on MSRP at $149 MSRP versus $130 MSRP, and you are getting 454.9% higher G3D Mark. Radeon R7 M370 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Radeon R7 M370 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Radeon R7 M370 is 2015 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM, 1,418 in G3D Mark, and FSR upscaling. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
