It's unclear from your message what problems you're experiencing when
trying to use JtR with that GPU.  Does it work?  If not, what happens
when you do what exactly?  Why did you start playing with the clocks and
fan speed already (perhaps for your use case you should not)?

It says "R9 200 Series", not an exact GPU type.  For a 7970 or a 7990,
it would similarly say "HD 7900 Series".  No problem here.

Yes.  You get what you ask for.  Why do you want that?

https://github.com/epixoip/od6config

"--autofix

    Sets minclock equal to maxclock, and PowerTune, fan speed, and
    target temperature all to their maximum default values."

I'm pretty sure you actually have 118 md5crypt hashes in there.

It should be working.  In fact, how did you obtain that status line at
"5g 0:00:00:00 0.63%" if not by a keypress?

Yes.

This means there are no usernames corresponding to those hashes in your
test-md5crypt-sha512crypt.hs file.
