The RTX 4050 is a mid-level graphics card. It's the entry model of the 40 series of GeForce. I just bought a laptop that has this GPU.
I am able to get 14.8 EHz on "I am Love." with 4 GB of VRAM using the CUDA version of Repeater.
This is faster than Google Colab.
It's good to have such a powerful laptop.
It was about $1300 for the laptop with tax.
It was the laptop recommended as a value gaming laptop from Tom's Hardware.

They have laptops that go over $3000 with like RTX 4090 that are way more powerful than the one I got. But that one is a good value as far as laptops go. It only has 6GB of vRAM and 16GB of RAM. The vRAM can play many games, but not at highest settings.
But if you're a gamer that plays AAA games, the latest ones probably 6GB of vRAM isn't enough.

Running regular Repeater on CPU for I am Love with 12 GB of RAM is only 300 PHz. So CUDA is like 30-40X faster.

The energy of the CUDA on my RTX 4050 feels smoother than I've run it before. Smoother than colab. But about the same strength.
