Sure, makes sense. Note that strictly speaking this is not an "overclock",
but a manual "boost clock" (to use terminology CPU vendors use). Consumer
GPUs automatically scale their clock
Persistence is enabled so I don't have to overclock again. To be honest, I
am still not entirely comfortable with the notion of ranks, after reading
the acceleration document a bunch of times. Parts of log file below and I
will obviously appreciate suggestions/clarifications:

Thanks for the heads up. With the K40c instead of GTX 960 here's what I
did and here are the results:
1. Enabled persistence mode and overclocked the card via nvidia-smi:

2. Offloaded PME's FFT to GPU (which wasn't the case with GTX
Hi,
Regarding the K40 vs GTX 960 question, the K40 will likely be a bit
faster (though it'l consume more power if that matters). The
difference will be at most 20% in total performance, I think -- and
with small systems likely negligible (as a smaller card with higher
clocks is more efficient at
Question: in the DD output (md.log) that looks like "DD step xx pme
mesh/force 1.229," what is the ratio? Does it mean the pme calculations
take longer by the shown factor than the nonbonded interactions?
With GTX 960, the ratio is consistently ~0.85, with Tesla K40 it's ~1.25.

So, swap, then? Thank you!

Hi all,
I have an old "prototyping" box with a 4-core Xeon and an old GTX 960. We
have a Tesla K40 laying around and there's only one PCIE slot available in
this machine. Would it make sense to swap the cards, or is it already
bottlenecked by the CPU? I compared the specs and 960 has a higher
