The gtx 1650 only has 4gb ram, I wouldn't call that similar to a 1060, I call it worse :). It's an entry level + 2 generation older card, it's going to be good enough for many titles still, especially indy ones, but new games that push graphics to new limits are just not going to work. Even when it was new, it was only really suitable for 1k gaming with compromises in the graphic settings.

Tbh, I don't get why you're so set on getting an Nvidia card. Unless you're into vr or ai, amd and intel really aren't bad choices. And since all current gen consoles are using AMD GPUs, all game engines + fancy games will be optimized for AMD gpus anyhow.
