[CP2K-user] [CP2K:18162] Question about testing the cutoff

Hi,

I'm trying to setup an AIMD simulation of Mn2+ & 69 water.  I uses the PBE 
functional with the DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH basis set and GTH pseudopotential. I 
ran the cutoff test following the  HOWTO tutorial on the CP2K website. Yet 
the results seem to have problems converging to 10E-6 Ha even till high 
cutoffs (with REL_CUTOFF=60). 

I'd like to know if I should be satisfied with the 1200 cutoff, or it is 
too high for practical MD runs, or I need to go even higher. Any help is 
appraciated.

Thank you,
Zhuoran
