Re: [AMBER] Use of pmemd for minimisation and equilibration

Hi,
It is not recommended to run minimizations and Equilibrations using CUDA because for speedup reasons many warning messages are not suppressed. So any large forces on the system will only worsen.
Therefore, for minimizations and equilibrations, it's highly recommended to use CPU (sander.MPI or pmemd.MPI).

Hi
I was wondering if it is okay to run minimisation and equlibration steps
using pmemd.cuda. The same input that I use with sander.MPI runs here too,
but what is the difference in results? The time gain is tremendous.
Thanks in advance
