Palit GTX 1650 StormX OC Graphics Card Review

A Closer Look

The card is freaking tiny, I mean, I didn’t know GPUs this small were still even possible. It’s so short that the card literally ends at the PCIe slot and it’s even smaller than most mini-ITX class cards.

The card uses a rather small heatsink with a tiny little blower fan on the top. It doesn’t look like much, but well… it’s not. However, this card doesn’t have any additional power except what it can get from the PCIe slot. Low power often means low heat, so perhaps this little cooler will surprise us yet.

Slim

The card does sit two slots high, albeit only just. However, the rear bracket is only one slot deep, so it only has room for a single HDMI output, and a single DVI-D output. That’s not a lot, but it’s really all we need.

Other than that, there’s a plastic shroud with the Palit logo on it and little else. It’s small, but honestly, I think it looks pretty neat and tidy too.

No back plate, but again, it’s not like this card is going to run hot or droop due to its own weight. Therefore, a back plate would be throwing money away.

Size Comparison

The Palit card next to my Roccat mouse. Now that’s what I call compact!

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
