Unfortunately its for work so ebay is right out. More cores and more RAM are always good. I tried to mix up some dual xeons but kept ending up more expensive, Ill try again. The RAM was selected for MOBO compatability and didnt cost much more than the slower but still ridiculously fast RAM (and it was in stock). ECC isnt high on the list since none of this supports production workloads, data loss would just be an inconvenience.
I agree on GPU availability concerns and Im prepared to tone those down a bit if I have to.
We wont be running hashcat in a VM, it will run on the host with the VMs all shutdown, but that was a good callout, I wasnt clear about that in my post.
