Path of Exile 2 on GeForce GTX 1650

Meets minimumEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Yes, at lower settings. The GeForce GTX 1650 meets Path of Exile 2's minimum spec but not the recommended one. We estimate ~37 fps at 1080p medium (range 30–45, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. 60 fps at 1080p is out of reach. Its 4 GB of video memory covers the 3 GB the game requires at minimum. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the Radeon RX 5600 XT (~61 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

This GeForce card has no tensor cores, so DLSS is not available. Use FSR or XeSS in quality mode before dropping the preset.

What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce GTX 1650 back.
Processor needed for ~37 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU: still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~29 fps.
