Yep. The only way to make real progress on it would be if multiple teams with lots of cards all cooperated. Which would itself be pretty cool, IMO.

Not necessary - in fact, definitely do not use SLI with hashcat. https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=frequently_asked_questions#should_i_attach_crossfire_amdsli_nvidia_bridges

No. Do the math (seriously, as in do the actual calculation of multiplying hashes per second by the number of hashes, using something like Wolfram Alpha) so that you understand why it's literally impo...

Separate from your syntax issue ... have you done the math of how long it would take to exhaust this mask (if it were even possible to run it with hashcat)? https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=95...

IMO, hardware beef correlates with interest/focus on password cracking. If you just want to improve general cracking throughput, you'll be fine following everything that undeath says. Most of the n...

(Well, it's not *strictly* a 100% requirement for some attacks - but definitely required for others). You should try to get as close to that as possible, though.

Yes. If your current platform isn't big enough to hold them all, there's no choice other than to chunk them. Just splitting it in half or thirds might be enough. When splitting it, be sure to use spli...

GPU memory is probably the first bottleneck that you'll hit when processing a very large hashlist.

The main hashcat page lists statistics for 7970, so double that for 7990s: https://hashcat.net/oclhashcat/ (search for 'wpa2') So if you can get all 6 working, I would guess 142 kh/s x 12 = 1.7 M...

Huh - when I did my veracrypt testing in late 2018, it used the filename. This seems like the approach that would cause the least amount of confusion. Otherwise, we'll have a steady stream of users as...
