[CP2K-user] [CP2K:13794] Re: Regarding GPU version

[Jörg Saßmannshausen]

Hi Fabian, hi all.

I am hijacking a bit this thread as I think it is relevant. 
I will have access to a GPU test machine which got the new Ampere GPU cards 
installed. If I get the Wiki page correctly, I would need to set the GPU 
version to A100, i.e.
 --gpu-ver=A100

Are the Ampere cards already supported in CP2K? Given that the latest version 
was released *before* the Ampere cards were around, I got the feeling that 
might not be the case. 

Thanks for your help.

All the best from a dark and cold London

Jörg
