That's disappointing. :( I wanted to see this.

I enjoy many of them too. But it doesn't make much sense to keep including them considering that core 17 isn't based on Gromacs.
F@h is now the top computing platform on the planet and nothing unites people like a dedicated fight against a common enemy. This virus affects all of us. Lets end it together.

You mean core-17 Core released few days ago? Or next GROMACS based cores (like SMP A3/A4/A5)?
AFAIK you work on GPU cores only. Or now you work on next SMP core as well?

GROMACS-based Core A4 is still going to be used for SMP work because it's really efficient at doing so.

That is making the assumption that OpenCL won't be the direction Stanford takes for their CPU work too. A single core for all GPU's and CPU's would greatly simplify the resources that Stanford needs to maintain the cores. Even if it isn't as efficient it may be worth it to them.
