Just a hunch, but maybe there is a bug such that it uses the optimized kernel in Versions 4.1.0 and 5.1.0 although it says pure kernel is selected. You could figure out by feeding it long candidat...

Might be related to changes to Autotune. How is the behavior on different workload profiles / without -w param? Also, it seems strange that hashcat 6.2.6 doesn't recognize the CUDA backend. Maybe a...

DDR5 won't make a huge difference, since cracking is mostly done on the GPU directly. PCIe 5.0 is also not too important, unless you plan to operate your cards on x4 links. As for the PSU: NEVER us...

In general, unselecting the driver that is packaged with CUDA is a bad idea in my experience. A clean reinstall of the latest CUDA package from their website (https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloa...

The iteration count of your target hash(es) probably higher than the benchmark iteration count, so there is nothing you can do to speed things up.

It's kinda impossible that PCIe 3.0 x16 will be a a bottleneck in any scenario. In benchmarking it doesn't even matter at all, since the performance purely depends on the work, that is done on the GPU...

Dropping to 900 kH/s from 1 MH/s after 8 hours seems normal to me, because it is just not possible to maintain the boost clock you are seeing in the first couple of seconds. You will also lose perform...

This error refers to your Intel iGPU (it says "Device 2" in front of the error), which is not used anyways. Cracking should work fine with your 1060.

Hashcat usually ignores your CPU by default when GPUs are available, but you can go with -d 2 to be sure. The risers might be correct for power draw, but the bandwith supplied by PCIe 3.0 x1 is not...
