Hi Daniel,

http://ambermd.org/GetAmber.php#amber

At present it's $500 but it will become free for academic users from April 15th 2023 onwards. As such you can either wait until April 15th or you could contact dacase.ambermd.gmail.com <mailto:dacase.ambermd.gmail.com> and see if you can get a fee waiver in the interim.

All the best
Ross

I suggest upgrading to Amber 22 which will support it. I would also recommend using CUDA 11.8 (since CUDA 10.2 is too old for the RTX3080). Make sure you have the latest NVIDIA driver as well and that nvidia-smi -a correctly identifies the 3080.
