[FPS Benchmarks] Warframe on NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 [40W and 50W] – even the 40W GPU can go above 110 FPS on Ultra details
Warframe is a popular free-to-play game. Its nature is on the hybrid side because it may look like a standard third-person shooter but at the same time, the game contains RPG elements as well. The game was released back in 2013 but its regular content updates are keeping the player base alive.
Technically-wise, the graphical part is based on the Evolution engine which looks okay for 2020 but its biggest advantage is the lightness. Low details are not a problem (40-ish FPS) for iGPUs like Intel UHD G1 or UHD 630.
This means that most of the dedicated GPUs can run this game without a hassle. That’s why we’ll check the performance of the GeForce GTX 1650 [40W, 896 CUDA, GDDR6] and the GeForce GTX 1650 [50W, 1024 CUDA, GDDR5].
