I recently 'installed' a GPU I was given by my dad, its an 'nVidia GeForce GTS 240'
I spent the day setting it up, then to realize that a dictionary attack with oclhashcat-plus was 10 minutes, while a dictionary attack with original hashcat took apporx: 5 minutes.
Why could this be, is it just plain and simple that my GPU specs aren't good enough or could there be something im missing here?
Thanks for your help, I can give you more information if needed.

Your card is damn slow ! 112 cores @ 675 Mhz
Buy a new one
Please paste your command line and and the output, and your driver version.

How do i get my driver versions, aalhough I know I nstalled the latest version of forceware, just a few days ago.

Run a brute-force attack on those hashes instead, oclhc-plus might be just slow with your wordlist:
./cudaHashcat-plus32.bin -m 0 -a 3 -1 ?d?l?u example0.hash ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1
Post you results.

Either do what blandy said or add rules. oclHashcat-plus needs an amplifier on fast hashes to run efficient.

you want me to let it run for the full time, or just give you what its done so far?

Will update with normal hashcat in 40 mins too if needed.

I guess that tells me that with mask attack, ocl is faster, but doesnt really give me insight into how much faster.
