9-10 KH/s is right about what you should be getting with those cards. you might be able to get a little bit more performance out of them by using the appropriate -n and -u values, and sorting your wordlists by length.
Good info, thanks for the reply.
Two Questions: (1) when you said "it doesn't help that their both nvidia", are you saying that AMD is better (more bang for the buck) at this kind of work? (2) If I were to go out and spend $150-$200 on a card today approx what kind of scores could I expect? 12KH/s? 15? 20? etc
