Hi, I am new to DFT and doing DFT calculation for my doped compounds using my PC having configuration of i3 (dual core with 4 Processors) with Physical RAM of 8 GB using Quantum Espresso in mpi. I can perform the calculations for 30 atoms with k_automatic of 3x3x3 easily. But When I choose a supercell with 80 atoms with same k grid, It's occurs memory limitation. So Can anyone make clear In which way memory depends upon no of atoms and processor requirement.
