How many atoms?

Also does this always happen at the same step in the simulation? If so, it
may be an AMBER bug.

If it's happening at random places given the same input however, it's
probably bad hardware

Also, none of the Ge Force cards have been qualified in any way whatsoever
for AMBER or other HPC applications. In general, they work just fine for
them though. You get what you pay for of course.
