Just for fun I ran the hashcat benchmarks on my 9-year old AMD Radeon RX 460.
The operating system is Gentoo Linux.
Unfortunately the Radeon RX 460 is not supported by the AMD ROCm software. So instead I tried older software stacks:
I found that hashcat 7.1.2 reliably crashed at the 34000 (Argon2) hash, on both AMDGPU-PRO and Mesa Rusticl. So I reverted to hashcat 6.2.6.
AMDGPU-PRO
hashcat -I
hashcat -b
Mesa Rusticl
hashcat -I
hashcat -b
The operating system is Gentoo Linux.
Unfortunately the Radeon RX 460 is not supported by the AMD ROCm software. So instead I tried older software stacks:
- AMDGPU-PRO (20.40). This dates to 2020-09-29.
- Mesa Rusticl (26.0.7). This is current.

hashcat (v6.2.6) starting in benchmark mode
Benchmarking uses hand-optimized kernel code by default.
You can use it in your cracking session by setting the -O option.
Note: Using optimized kernel code limits the maximum supported password length.
To disable the optimized kernel code in benchmark mode, use the -w option.
