QE fully supports 2.x and 3.x. Compute capability 1.3 may still work but there 
are not that much cards around, consider it deprecated. Compute Capability 3.5 
(K20, K40, K80) is the best.

Maxwell architecture is not optimized for double precision (or FP64). If you 
really want to give it a try drop me an email tomorrow or Friday and I will let 
you know what files you have to change after run the configure (I am curious as 
well and I will be surprised if Maxwell is better than Kepler!) 

Have a nice New Year's eve and New Year's Day.

Cheers,
Filippo

[Pw_forum] WEIGHT OF Q POINTS IN PHONON CALCULATION

2014-12-31 Thread Umesh Roy
Dear All,
  Can anybody help me for the following cases
 1. What is the role of nq (specified weight of q points for a particular q
point) if we want to calculate phonons along a particular direction?
 2. In case if I don't want to use weight of  q points , how one can
calculate phonons at a list of q points along a particular direction?


Thankyou
