Will the Ryzen 7 7700X bottleneck the GTX 1650?

No. At 1440p the GTX 1650 is the limiting part, which is the normal state for a gaming PC. The Ryzen 7 7700X has headroom to spare. This is a model estimate from performance indexes, not a measured FPS loss.

What power supply do I need for a Ryzen 7 7700X and GTX 1650?

Sustained gaming load is about 244 W using the GTX 1650's measured draw. A 450 W unit is the safe choice.

Is this pair better at 1080p or 4K?

1080p: GPU-limited 37% (GPU-bound (normal)). 1440p: GPU-limited 43% (CPU overkill). 4K: GPU-limited 57% (CPU overkill).

Ryzen 7 7700X + GTX 1650: bottleneck check

43%

GPU-limited at 1440p. CPU overkill.

CPU GPU

The GTX 1650 is the part working hardest at 1440p, which is what you want. The Ryzen 7 7700X keeps about 43% in reserve.

By resolution

Resolution	Limiting part	Severity	Verdict
1080p	GPU	37%	GPU-bound (normal)
1440p	GPU	43%	CPU overkill
4K	GPU	57%	CPU overkill

The GTX 1650 is the limit at every resolution and by a wide margin at 4K (57%). The Ryzen 7 7700X is overkill for this card: a faster GPU would give you far more frames than any CPU change.

Power supply

The GTX 1650 measured 64 W average while gaming (66 W peak, TechPowerUp). With the Ryzen 7 7700X at its TDP of 105 W and about 75 W for the rest of the system, the sustained load is about 244 W. A 450 W unit is the safe choice. Details on the GTX 1650 PSU page or try other pairs in the PSU calculator.
