[gmx-users] GPU-accelerated desktop PC for MD simulations

[Gustavo Avelar Molina]

Hi everyone,

I want to build a new GPU-accelerated desktop PC for MD simulations of
relatively simple protein/carbohydrate systems. No QM-MM simulations is
intended for now. For instance, I have been working with a protein of
approximately 1500 atoms in the presence of small carbohydrates (<100
atoms). For the protein alone, my home PC (i5-4570 CPU 3.20GHz, not
GPU-accelerated) does approximately 5 ns/day, so I want something
considerably faster than that.

Which hardware should I choose? Could you suggest low to high price
configurations with good power considering the current technology available?

Thank you very much for your time.

Best regards,

Gustavo
