I can't find a full guide on how to successfully crack WPA/WPA2 using the CPU version of hashcat. I would greately appreciate it if anyone could tell me where I can find one. As I am new to hashcat, I also wanted to know what would happen when the right password is found and where would it be saved.
Google "hashcat wpa tutorial" and go from there. There's even one on this site!!!

CPU version
more or less the same as GPU version except slower obviously.
Once you've actually read and understood these tutorials you'll know the difference between them.
"Full guide" is code for "I don't want to read and study."

That's not true. I can only find information on oclHashcat but there is barely that much information on the CPU version of Hashcat.
The usage of the CPU and GPU version of hashcat (in the case of WPA/WPA2 cracking) is almost identical. If you know how to use one for WPA cracking you will be able to use the other.
Also, when you get deeper, a 'full guide' or anything of that sort becomes increasingly difficult to find. Mostly you'll just have manuals for the individual programs like
https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=hashcat, and then you work your way from there.
just want to repeat that wpa cracking starts with wps, then dictionary attack fx.

then investigating your targets router etc......
and as they said its already out there just check youtube.....
