Styles with a *gpu*, *intel*, *kk*, *omp*, or *opt* suffix are
functionally the same as the corresponding style without the suffix.
They have been optimized to run faster, depending on your available
hardware, as discussed on the :doc:`Accelerator packages <Speed_packages>`
page. The accelerated styles take the same arguments and should
produce the same results, except for round-off and precision issues.
These accelerated styles are part of the GPU, INTEL, KOKKOS,
OPENMP, and OPT packages, respectively. They are only enabled if
LAMMPS was built with those packages. See the :doc:`Build package <Build_package>` page for more info.
You can specify the accelerated styles explicitly in your input script
by including their suffix, or you can use the :doc:`-suffix command-line switch <Run_options>` when you invoke LAMMPS, or you can use the
:doc:`suffix <suffix>` command in your input script.
See the :doc:`Accelerator packages <Speed_packages>` page for more
instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.
