Could somebody please explain how an Nvidia card could be faster at gaming yet much much slower at cracking passwords.
Lets compare two similar late model cards. The Geforce Gtx 670 and the Radeon 7970.
PassMark G3D Mark Benchmark.
Benchmark
Gtx 670 = 5335
Radeon 7970 = 5,039
As we can see the Gtx 670 benchmarks slightly higher
Hash Cat WPA speed GPU estimation.
WPA speeds
Gtx 670 = 23,791
Radeon 7970 = 114,679
The Radeon card can crack a WPA pass close to 5 times faster!!!
These two cards are fairly similar they have almost identical Core Clock speeds and price tags.
