Modern PSA are designed to be slow on GPUs, for example by requiring massive amounts of RAM for each thread involved. 200 MB of RAM on a 16-core CPU is cheap, but 200 MB of RAM with a 2000 shader GPU would require almost 400GB of VRAM. Anyway, lets stay on topic.

"can not run hashcat" is not a suitable problem description. Do you have the Intel OpenCL CPU runtime installed and is your CPU detected by hashcat?
