Not running on the GPU

[Xubeqi]

Hi all!

I am trying to run hashcat on my Nvidia GPU but not having any luck so far.
Here is the command I'm using:

Code:

hashcat -m 12700 -a 3 -w 2 --hwmon-disable -d 1 wallet.hash ?a?a?a?a?a?a

And this is the info I'm getting:

Code:

hashcat (v6.1.1) starting...

Where I want to run on my GeForce GTX 1070.

I tried to run with --force, but it either only runs on Intel(R) UHD Graphics 630 (if I don't specify a device) or on CPU if I specify "-d 1".

I'm also on Windows 10 if that helps anything.

What can I do to get it running on the GeForce GPU?


Thanks so much in advance!

So it seems like running on device #2 instead of #1 gives some result on the GPU.
However, it's only running on 0.1% efficiency, even with "-w 4".

Is there any way to debug why it's using so little resources?

(I read somewhere that Windows Task Manager sometimes is misleading in the values it gives, so for reference, it's running at about 11000 kH/s at the moment, is it just the reading that is wrong perhaps?)

according to the output you posted above it is using this device:
Device #1: GeForce GTX 1070 with Max-Q Design, 6788/8192 MB, 16MCU

Don't use the task manager to assess gpu resource usage.
