Conclusion

Intel ARC 140V loses to GTX 1650 mobile due to lower TDP disadvantage plus the iGPU used in Core Ultra 7 258V has lower clocks.

GTX 1650 mobile is still a good contender to the new arc 140V in 1080p gaming. GTX 1650 mobile has a higher TDP limit with faster memory despite in some games Arc 140V touched the GTX 1650 mobile performance in gaming.

FAQs

Is the Intel ARC 140V and 1650 good for gaming?

ARC 140V and 1650 both have good graphics easily able to run games at 1080p med settings in old AAA titles. GTX 1650 Mobile is still able to play AAA title games at 1080p med settings.

In modern AAA titles also they are pretty much capable of running games at 1080p med/low settings and some games run at high settings. The use of FSR and XESS can boost the framerates to 60FPS.

Which is better GTX 1650 mobile or Intel ARC 140V?

In this test, Intel ARC 140V was crushed by GTX 1650 mobile due to variation in clocks and TDP as GTX 1650 is a dedicated GPU with high TDP and faster memory plus the difference in architecture.

What are the computing capabilities of GTX 1650 mobile and ARC 140V?

GTX 1650 mobile Tflops is 3.1 TFLOPS while ARC 140V Tflops is 3.9 – 4.19 TFLOPS.
