Re: [AMBER] Info About GPU and PMEMD versions

Hi Lorenzo,

An archived version of the AMBER 12 GPU page is available here:
http://ambermd.org/gpus12/

All those GPUs should work with AMBER 12 - M1070 support was removed with
AMBER 14.

I would suggest doing the following:

Install CUDA 5.0

Untar an original copy of Amber 12 and AmberTools 13 (You must use
AmberTools 13).

Run the update_amber script in the amber12 directory multiple times until
it reports no more updates - this is critical since there were many
updates to the GPU code.

Compile and run the tests on each of the GPUs and you should be good to go.

All the best
Ross
