[gmx-users] Fwd: EULA clarification

[Erik Lindahl]

Hi,

Some of you might have seen the discuss about NVIDIA license changes
targeting commercial usage of GeForce cards in very large data centers.

We’ve talked a bit to NVIDIA over the holidays. They never had the
intention of targeting academic usage, but since I mentioned it was likely
very important to all of you that there is an on-the-record statement about
this, I’m very happy they came through quickly. This is an on-the-record
statement you can share.

Basically - all academic usage is fine.

Cheers,

Erik

We have received inquiries asking whether GeForce and TITAN GPUs can be
used in academic servers. The answer is yes.

NVIDIA pioneered GPU computing with a vision of democratizing high
performance computing.
Our GPUs have become an important tool for scientists worldwide and we
support their use of GeForce and TITAN in non-commercial academic research.
