Graphic Card is better in cracking password than CPU

By Korabi On October 28, 2007 Under Hardware

Nowadays, the requirement for PC games is getting higher and higher, this also causes the processing power of the graphic cards getting much higher. Russian hackers have found their ways to crack password using the GPU processing power!

The Russians have created a unique technique by using the same parallel processing idea for brute force attacks. The processing power of Nvidia 8800 is 25 times faster than a CPU when using it for such task. That is also why GPU is more appropriate than CPU in processing such task.

So, thanks for Russians, you have found a new role for your graphic cards!
