Gromacs that can be accelerated at AMD GPUs like MI100 by ROCm

GPU acquirement

AMD Instinct Accelerators : MI100 / MI50 (especially fast)

other AMD GPU supporting ROCm

System acquirement

Centos 8.3 / Ubuntu 18.04 with ROCm 4.2 installed (vertified)

other Linux system capable of equipping with ROCm

installation guide

cd gromacs-amdgpu
cmake .. -DGMX_GPU_USE_AMD=on
make -j12 // or your own parallel counts
make check
make install

estimate performance

MI100 = V100S 2X
MI100 = A100 1.3X
2*MI100 = MI100 1.2X
