It depends on what systems you are using. What are the molecules in your gb
calculation?
Also even though we developed igb=8, in my opinion pbsa is a far superior
choice over gbsa unless speed is a major limitation (such as md). For
post-processing there is usually no compelling reason to choose the less
accurate gb model.
