GTX 1660ti, CUDA, slow hash rate for some algos - hiwire - 11-19-2019

I haven't found any benchmarks for the GTX 1660ti but there's a forum post that says it should be comparable to GTX 1070. When I benchmark WPA, bcrypt and LUKS I get similar results to 1070 benchmarks posted online. When I crack actual hashes WPA results are similar to benchmark but bcrypt and LUKS just crawl along. For example, bcrypt benchmarks at 12000 H/s but my hashes run at 115 H/s.

I'm running latest hashcat from github on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
NVIDIA Driver Version: 435.21

Hopefully someone can give me a tip. Thanks!

Benchmarking uses hand-optimized kernel code by default.
You can use it in your cracking session by setting the -O option.
Note: Using optimized kernel code limits the maximum supported password length.
To disable the optimized kernel code in benchmark mode, use the -w option.

RE: GTX 1660ti, CUDA, slow hash rate for some algos - slyexe - 11-19-2019

I'm guessing it has to do with the Iteration Count. Benchmark has a defaulted iteration count which obviously can vary based on the hash provided.

Try the example hash and see if it also produces the same rates, mine seemed to have no issues between the benchmark and the example hash using a bruteforce attack.

Password is hashcat

Code:
hashcat64.exe  -m 3200 -a 3 $2a$05$LhayLxezLhK1LhWvKxCyLOj0j1u.Kj0jZ0pEmm134uzrQlFvQJLF6 has?l?l?l?l

Edit: Also tested with rockyou.txt and no drop in speed from benchmark.

You're exactly right. My hash has 12 rounds compared to your 5. I had no idea the iterations parameter was logarithmic.

Thank you
