I have an intel mac with both AMD 5700XT and 6900XT. When trying to run hashcat with Metal drivers I cant specify which GPU to use. It will use all available no matter what I do.
Running this command you can see how the device selection of -D 2 (GPU Selection) -d 2 (6900XT) still lists devices 1 & 2 as being used.
I can run it in OpenCL mode and things work properly but Id prefer Metal.
Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated. Thx
