In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 EVGA Superclocked 1GB Edition are significantly better than the Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 1GB.
The GTX 750 has a 157 MHz higher core clock speed and the same number of Texture Mapping Units as the GTX 650. This results in the GTX 750 providing 5 GTexel/s better texturing performance. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The GTX 750 has a 157 MHz higher core clock speed than the GTX 650 and the same number of Render Output Units. This results in the GTX 750 providing 2.5 GPixel/s better pixeling performance. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
The GTX 750 was released over a year more recently than the GTX 650, and so the GTX 750 is likely to have better driver support, meaning it will be more optimized for running the latest games when compared to the GTX 650.
The GeForce GTX 750 EVGA Superclocked 1GB Edition and the GeForce GTX 650 1GB have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.
The GTX 750 has 0.2 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the GTX 650, which means that the memory performance of the GTX 750 is marginally better than the GTX 650.
The GeForce GTX 750 EVGA Superclocked 1GB Edition has 512 Shader Processing Units and the GeForce GTX 650 1GB has 384. However, the actual shader performance of the GTX 750 is 894 and the actual shader performance of the GTX 650 is 406. The GTX 750 having 488 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the GTX 750 delivers a noticeably smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the GTX 650.
The GeForce GTX 750 EVGA Superclocked 1GB Edition requires 55 Watts to run and the GeForce GTX 650 1GB requires 64 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 300 Watts for the GTX 750 and a PSU with at least 400 Watts for the GTX 650. The GTX 650 requires 9 Watts more than the GTX 750 to run. The difference is not significant enough for the GTX 650 to have a noticeably larger impact on your yearly electricity bills than the GTX 750.

| Mini Review | GeForce GTX 750 EVGA Superclocked 1GB Edition is a special edition of the fast-middle-class GeForce GTX 750. This edition comes with a custom cooling cooling solution which by itself will allow a slight performance boost, as GeForce GTX 750 benefits from the GPU Boost 2.0 technology. Furthermore, it comes overclocked out of the box in the central unit that was raised from 1020MHz to 1215MHz, while the Turbo Boost is now of 1294MHz, instead of 1085MHz. The operating memory clock was left untouched. Further overclocking can be achieved easily, as the GPU has great OC potential. Benchmarks indicate its performance is around 6% better than the reference card. | GeForce GTX 650 1GB is a fast-middle-class GFX based on the 28nm Kepler architecture. It's based on the Kepler GK107 Core (same used on GT 640) with a count of 384 CUDA Cores (just like GT 640) but paired with fast GDDR5. Therefore, GeForce GTX 650 1GB can be addressed as a fast GeForce GT 640 paired with fast GDDR5. Gaming benchmarks indicate its performance is about 1% better than previous generation - GeForce GTX 550 Ti which might not make it a worthy replacement due to its extra cost and that the most demanding games (Metro 2033, The Witcher II, etc) still require reduced settings while modern demanding games (Battlefield 3, Max Payne 3) are playable at high settings but not paired with extreme resolutions. | |||
