Sigh. The GTX 1080 is faster than Vega with Hashcat. The performance is exactly as I said it would be months before the cards were even released. I said it will likely benchmark better because benchmarks are bursty, but it would fall apart in real-world performance because of PowerTune. This is precisely what users are seeing: real world performance that is 40% of benchmark speeds, nowhere near the speed of the GTX 1080, let alone the 1080 Ti.
As someone who sells GPUs for password cracking for a living, don't you think I would be selling AMD GPUs if they were better? There's a reason I abandoned AMD and ran far, far away.
