The L4 looks to be the original low power one ( PB-11316-001_v01.pdf (nvidia.com) )

FYI: my requirement is highest possible performance, not power consumption.

Regarding
Quote:It can only use one GPU at a time
are you referring to if you had them connected with NVlink it could only use one? But if you have multiple GPUs not connected via NVLink it can use them at the same time or can you just not do parallelized processing?

Thank you for taking the time to explain.

The posts you are referencing have been removed as they were clearly not accurate. They were seemingly generated by an LLM such as ChatGPT. Please don't believe what you've been told so far, there are lots of issues with what was said hence my removal.

For example: "It can only use one GPU at a time" This is simply false and I have no idea why anyone would repeat it willfully. Hashcat can use as many GPUs as are present and accessible, there's no reason why it would be limited to only one.

Could you start over with what information you are looking for and what you believe so far? I will follow up with a real answer as soon as I have time.
