Re: [gmx-users] GPU compatibility

Correct, C1060 does not have the CUDA 2.0 compute capability required for
GROMACS 4.6. We will not have the ability to support GPU cards of lower
capability in the future. Unfortunately, your only GROMACS options are
probably to use the OpenMM functionality in 4.5.x (which is still present
in 4.6, works as far as we know, but is not in our regular test suite and
the feature is probably headed for deprecation). This will not perform as
well as the new native GPU acceleration, and supports a smaller range of
features, but might be better than wasting the GPUs.

Regards,

Mark

[gmx-users] GPU compatibility

2012-12-09 Thread Cara Kreck




Hi,

We've got a GPU cluster in our group and have really been looking forward to 
running gromacs on it with full functionality. Unfortunately, it looks like our 
NVIDIA Tesla C1060 cards aren't supported by the 4.6 beta. I was just wondering 
if there was any chance that they would be supported in the full version? These 
cards are only a couple of years old now and were bought specifically for 
running MD.

Thanks,

Cara
