Optimize my Rig please - TheAviator - 03-05-2023 Hi im a new hashcat user but need to recover an important password for a friend. What OS and settings should i run to get best hashing performance for 26600? Is Ubuntu still the best OS for Hashcat? I guess you'd put it in CLI mode and disable the GUI ? SMT (hyper threading) on/off? Specific drivers that work better? Rig Details CPU: 5950x RAM: 32gm NVMe: samsung 990 pro GPU: RTX 4090 Would i see any benefit going to 64gb ram? I created a separate thread asking how to get hashcat to generate lists using all cores, not just one. RE: Optimize my Rig please - marc1n - 03-05-2023 One GPU card is not enough for rig The best is Linux can be Ubuntu 64 GB of RAM will not speed up the work significantly.
