NAMD 2.12 Volta Compatibility

All,

Looking into purchasing new hardware including V100 GPUs. Does NAMD 2.12
support the Nvidia Volta architecture yet? I have run namd using the
environment variable CUDA_FORCE_PTX_JIT=1 to test for the PTX kernel
version and it did run successfully. If I conducted the test correctly
this leads me to believe that NAMD will be compatible with the V100
GPU's. Also, does current or future versions of NAMD support the NVLink2
communication?

Thanks,

Richard Overstreet
