forumhero,
Thank you for the reply.
I'm not intimately familiar with GPU architecture. Will the official 7990's from AMD be integrated so much so that a user is able to connect four in series or will it be such that only two are able to be "crossfired"?
Also, I see that the AMD system you linked above incorporates eight cards. Where does "crossfire" come into play, if at all? Is there ever a time where Crossfire is used in cracking? Also, is one able to cluster multiple systems together (via FoE or any such protocol) to utilize greater processing capabilities? Again, I am very new to the cracking field. If not hashcat, then what software allows this? Perhaps something can be contrived outside of the cracking software entirely - for instance, at a lower lever in the stack. That's not my department.
Atom - I just realized that you are the writer of "hashcat". Thanks for the fine work, mate!
Thanks,
Host
