Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my current computer for some hashcat fun.
I appologize in advance for my horrible knowledge.
Currently I run an ATI 6990 and I'm looking to upgrade it.
1) Is ATI the prefered card for using hashcat?
2) Is a 7970 a worthy upgrade, as in worth the money?
3)Is the difference between 7970 and 7990 worth the money or is more an enthusiast thing?
4) I tested hashcat on my 6990 and it almost sounded like it was about to explode with an 81 temp. Are there any steps to take to prevent this or lower the temperature other than installing more fans which im looking to do?
Thanks in advance for any answers and for your patience.
