In particular I'd like to more carefully choose gpu card (and number of cards) as well as CPU
1) In case of GPU I have to possible options 2 x GeForce 680 (256 bit, 4gb ram ) or 1 x Geforce 690 (320 bit, 6 gb ram). >From what option the best performance should be expected ? What GPU's parameters would be most crucial for simulations ? 2) In case of CPU I'd like to use Core i7 (4 cores). Should the performance with that CPU be better than with Core I5 ( also 4 cores) ? 3) Any other setups ? (e.g based on the server-like hardware Xeon CPU ) Could also someone provide me with some bechmark tests of new Gromacs 4.6 with different hardware setups ?
