Best CPU/GPU - dex - 08-22-2014
What CPU or GPU would perform the best I have some serious password recovery needs. I have been budgeted $1000 for the pentest on our network and will be spending it all on a CPU or GPU. Recommendations?

Which algorithms ?
You probably want to go for GPUs only.
Radeon R9 295X2 (but $1500)
Radeon R9 290X (~$600)

you must not have adequately conveyed the seriousness of your password recovery needs for management to give you such a small budget.

oh I have. If they budgeted the original network design properly the hashes wouldn't be broadcasted over the air unencrypted and we wouldn't even be having this problem lol whatever they can make look good in paper!
