Descrypt 8 Char PW
#1
How long would it take to crack an 8 char DESCrypt password composed of ?a?a?a?a?a?a?a?a using a GTX 1060 ?
#2
I couldn't immediately find any public benchmarks on 4.x hashcat for a 1060.

If you happen to have one, run that actual attack and check the time estimate; that will be the most accurate way to get your answer.

OK, the card doesn't arrive for a week or so. Its was either a GTX 970 or 1060, and the 1060 seemed a lot faster.

edit: w2, w3 gets you up to ~450 MH/s

undeath, cool - yours? Was that under -w 4?

Here's one for 6x 1080s, -w 4:

Thanks for the benchs.

I saw a benchmark on the GTX 970:

Hashtype: descrypt, DES(Unix), Traditional DES
Workload: 128 loops, 256 accel

Speed.GPU.#1.: 89998.0 kH/s

Why's it so much slower than the 1060 ?
#7
Faster base clock (1708 MHz vs1050 MHz) ?

Ah, good that means I can OC and get more speed.
#9
For a single 1060, it will still take four months, I would think.

Yeah, Im thinking of getting x2 1060s and a 1070.

Once done I can put them in to a secondary PC (which has an old GTX 260 at the moment).
