    Thread: Ryzen 1800X CPU with 1080 Ti GPU
Post: RE: Ryzen 1800X CPU with 1080 Ti GPU

If you're using your CPU for activities indirectly related to the actual cracking phase (like working with wordlists, etc.), then most CPUs are fine (faster and more cores are better, etc). But if ...

OK, so to recap: * @NikosD stated that Ryzen 7 1800X "is the best mainstream CPU for everything, even cracking." * @epixoip specifically addressed hashing performance in his reply, by documenting h...

@NikosD, if you don't see Kabylake's Core i7 7700K results ... then generate them yourself, post them, and let the numbers speak for themselves. You continue to make claims that overall processor pe...

Now that CCC is over, maybe @epixoip will have time for an unboxing. ;)

Hashcat will happily use heterogeneous cards.

    Thread: Running into issues with max mask length
Post: RE: Running into issues with max mask length

I honestly haven't tried this before, but instead of trying to load it all into a mask, you might also be able to just do a hybrid attack (mask + wordlist), where the wordlist is just one line with yo...

    Thread: Running hashcat on multiple hash files
Post: RE: Running hashcat on multiple hash files

hashcat currently expects the target hash to be a single file (or a single hash on the command line).

Post: RE: Running hashcat on multiple hash files

Under the Windows command line, the /b switch to copy preserves all original content when concatenating files. In this context, it is the correct switch to use.

Multiple sessions are fine. I regularly pause one long-running session to do a quick shorter session. You will want to use the --session parameter to give additional ones different names. Multiple ...

By default, hashcat only uses GPUs when available. You can modify that with these flags. Code: -- $ hashcat --help | grep opencl-device -d, --opencl-devices           | Str  | OpenCL device...

Post: RE: Run 3 opencl devices at once

No, --force would have no effect on not skipping a given platform. Only -D and -d will do that.

Ah, I didn't know about the instruction consequences of using -d. Interesting.

+1. You can also study which rules were effective for a given wordlist, rule list, and target hash list with --debug-mode / --debug-file.

Fair question. If the rule file contains the "do nothing" rule directive ( : - just a colon by itself), then the original unmodified input words will be used.

Generally speaking, there's no efficient way to eliminate duplicates within hashcat itself. You'd have to write an external candidate-password generator, and pipe that into hashcat.

The kernel building is a once-per-algorithm-per-hashcat-version thing, and will only slow you down on the first run.
