Dear all,
I received some founds to upgrade our old cluster. Currently we have
8x tyan mother board <http://www.tyan.com/product_board_detail.aspx?pid=453>
16x AMD Opteron Quad
2376<http://products.amd.com/en-us/OpteronCPUDetail.aspx?id=489>
8x 750 W PSU
The mother board has two PCI-E 2.0 8x.
I was thinking of buying either two GeForce GTX
580<http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-geforce-gtx-580-us.html>or
one GeForce
GTX 590<http://www.geforce.com/#/Hardware/GPUs/geforce-gtx-590/specifications>for
each node.
What would be the better option for running NAMD? We will start running some
medium (~300k atoms) membrane systems in the near future.
Or would I be perhaps better off buying new nodes? Any other suggestions
welcome.
Thank you for your help,
