If you already have a psf file you don't need a topology file, topology
file is an intermediate file needed to create the psf file, you don't need
a topology file to run simulation.
one piece of suggestion i would like to give you is that, even i am also a
beginner and what i found helpful is that if you go through the basic
tutorials of both NAMD and VMD very carefully, you will find most of your
questions answered, with much better understanding.
