I see that there is already a thread about this in this forum. Although, that one is for a HTPC, and the OP is from Canada.

Which makes the most sense?
Currently, PSU in rig that needs a GPU has a brand-new Corsair CX450 80Plus Bronze, and has a single PCI-E 6+2 power connector on it. (non-modular)
I currently have an older R7 260X XFX dual-fan "Ghost 3.0" cooler model in there. It runs OK, but only does 4K30, won't do 4K60 for desktop usage, over the HDMI 1.4b port.
Would like to get something nicer, and new, in there, to sell/gift this rig.
Rest of rig is Ryzen R5 1600 CPU, 16GB DIMM (single-channel) 2667 @ 3000 1.35V, M.2 NVMe 256GB, Win10 Pro 64-bit 1903. Gigabyte B350 Gaming 3 ATX board (open-box special). Some DIYPC case, fairly cheap, but with a tempered-glass side, no RGB, but mobo has a light-up stripe along the inside edge.
First off, I know that the RX 570 4GB is around double the performance of the R7 260X 2GB GDDR5 model, not sure how the GTX 1650 stacks up to it, somewhere in-between I expect.
I guess, if RX 570 4GB is faster than the GTX 1650, and cheaper to boot, and only a bit more power consumption, is there any real advantage to getting a GTX 1650? Besides if you already have a G-Sync monitor (this person does not, although I gifted them a 75Hz FreeSync AOC gaming monitor a little while ago).
