[Wien] Beween non spin polarized and spin polarized calculations

Hello wien2k users

When we made calculation of the fcc Fe metal with gga functional we have
found that the non spin polarized calculation gives lower energy than the
spin polarized calculation.

1) What does that it mean?
2) Should we proceed to other magnetic calculations ( AFM and FERRI ) to
find the magnetic ground state?

Best regards
