Your mileage might vary depending on what card you’re using. Hashcat (now known as oclhashcat-plus) comes with a few different binaries depending on what architecture you’ll be running it on.

So you’ve got a hash and you want to crack it. We’ve already covered a quick way to get to a windows password here but in that example we simply used john the ripper to crack the password… but what if john is taking ages? Step in rainbow tables.
