1) Even a very weak GPU will massively outperform even the best CPU
2) Neither, really. It's just dependant on the card rather than NVIDIA vs AMD but NVIDIA has some flexibility advantages, as we can use CUDA so all of the VRAM can be used instead of just 1/4. This doesn't affect speed, though. Just means you can load in gigantic hashlists/rules
3) Correct, which is what rules are for. Taking "Password" and turning it into other common variants, like "Password1"
