AWS GPU family instances - ac427 - 12-14-2016

I guess expense is the main problem with using AWS GPU family instances with Hashcat.

Has anyone tried it though ?

Sure, lots of people have tried, and some even do indeed continue to use AWS. But AWS GPUs are shit for password cracking, the Perf/$ is atrocious, and it gets very expensive quite quickly. It doesn't make any sense at all to use AWS.
