hd 6990 & HD 5970 - cichy - 08-19-2012

Im thinking to add Hd 5970 or 7970 to my pc I have already one HD6990.
Is posible to run two diffrent cards on hashcat gui with oclHashcat-plus ?
And how complicated is to do so ?
Or I have to use same cards?
Thank you

Mixed GPU types is fully supported on oclHashcat-lite, not on oclHashcat-plus. You have to run multiple instances if you want to use it with oclHashcat-plus and manually split the workload accordingly.

So the best way is to add one more HD 6990 to avoid problems .
Do you think another 6990 will double me speed.
Power supply 1250w will be enough.
Or should I sell 6990 and get Hd7970 at least 2 of them

Thank you for you respond

yes, two hd6990 will double your speed. two hd6990 are faster than two hd7970.
