Fix
You can fix the error by updating the CMakeCache.txt after you cmake Gromacs. Update GMX_CPU_ACCELERATION:STRING=AVX_128_FMA to //Accelerated CPU kernels. Pick one of: None, SSE2, SSE4.1, AVX_128_FMA, // AVX_256, IBM_QPX, Sparc64_HPC_ACE GMX_CPU_ACCELERATION:STRING=None After which you can proceed with $ make $ make install It’s probably because Intel compilers do not understand the intrinsic types of AMD (AVX_128_FMA as identified by Gromacs) Meaning: the Intel compiler cannot produce optimized code for AMD.
