This is my input file. Can you comment if there is any bad parameter?

The system contains 32500 atoms. I am using Amber 11 cuda serial version. I run both on GTX 580 and Tesla C2050, but the results are the same. Did I do anything wrong?

Yes, it is bad. Probably, you have specified some bad (incompatible with
NVE) parameters, which provoke energy leakage.
