Help Needed with GPU Performance in Hashcat - dddavvid - 08-14-2024 Hi everyone, I am relatively new to Hashcat and could use some guidance. I am trying to optimize GPU performance but I am not seeing the speed I do expect. I am using an NVIDIA RTX 3060 and while it is working, the speeds seem lower than what I have seen others report with similar setups. Here is what I have done so far: Installed the latest GPU drivers Using the latest version of Hashcat Ensured the GPU is running in performance mode Checked that no other programs are using GPU resources Despite all this I am still not hitting the speeds I was hoping for. Am I missing something? Are there specific settings or tweaks I should be aware of? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have also read this topic on this website https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77491850/hashcat-has-different-performance-than-benchmark-results-sap-sac but i could not found the solution. Thanks in advance [David] RE: Help Needed with GPU Performance in Hashcat - Snoopy - 08-14-2024 Benchmark is a best case scenario, real speed depends or is influenced by much more factors. what kind of hash, slow, fast, how many, salted or unsalted, higher iterationcount then default, wordlist (count)+rules(count) or bruteforce? there are some standard options like -O for optimzed kernel or -w3, -w4 for workload, but still these will not guarantee full speed. Can you provide more info about your task? Anyway some infos for fast and slow hashes can be found here https://hashcat.net/faq/morework
