Hello,

I want to run GPU accelerated NAMD on my computer which has a ATI video
card. However, according to the NAMD user guide and online information, GPU
accelerated NAMD can only function with nvidia video cards, which are
CUDA-capable. I want to know does it mean that we can not run GPU
accelerated NAMD by using ATI video card in any case, currently?

I heard that NVIDIA Contributes CUDA Compiler to Open Source Community and
wish we can use ATI video cards to run NAMD with GPU acceleration in the
future.

Best wishes to you,

Dongsheng Lei
