Hi,

Yes. The simulation quality is not determined by nstlist, but rather by the
buffering implemented by the list. You've chosen a (default) tolerance to
set the quality you require, and if you also choose nstlist then mdrun will
choose the buffer size necessary to honour that tolerance. See
http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/2016.3/user-guide/cutoff-schemes.html
.
