GeForce GT 340		69 Watts
GeForce GTX 1650		75 Watts
	Difference: 6 Watts (9%)

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the GeForce GTX 1650 should in theory be quite a bit better than the GeForce GT 340 overall. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		131072 MB/sec
GeForce GT 340		54400 MB/sec
	Difference: 76672 (141%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 is much (approximately 373%) better at texture filtering than the GeForce GT 340. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		83160 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GT 340		17600 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 65560 (373%)

Pixel Rate

The GeForce GTX 1650 will be quite a bit (about 980%) faster with regards to AA than the GeForce GT 340, and should be capable of handling higher screen resolutions without losing too much performance. (explain)

GeForce GTX 1650		47520 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GT 340		4400 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 43120 (980%)

Please note that the above 'benchmarks' are all just theoretical - the results were calculated based on the card's specifications, and real-world performance may (and probably will) vary at least a bit.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the max amount of data (measured in megabytes per second) that can be transferred over the external memory interface in one second. The number is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory speed. If it uses DDR RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are processed per second. This is calculated by multiplying the total amount of texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The actual pixel fill rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
