triple 4090 rig for Dictionary attack - dexlin88 - 11-28-2022

Hi,
I want to purchase a new rig that is specialized for dictionary attacks for Rar and Office.
So i was thinking of getting 3 RTX 4090 to do the job.
I have several questions:
1. according to "passwordvillage.org/hardware.html" the Cpu section, it says that sometimes the cpu is more important when using dictionary attack so will i benefit from the rtx 4090 or do i need to work on getting a fast cpu along with them.

2. For Cpu demand, will the rule  n+2 work for this setup? so for 3 GPU i need a cpu that can have at least 6 Threads. And using such CPU can it handle running these 3 GPU's?

3. For RAM do i need 2 x Vram ?


Thanks for your help Smile
