Actually the R9 290X (at least with 14.4 driver) is totally unusable for
cracking out-of-the-box. It will throttle clocks at ridculously low
temperatures instead of increasing fan speed a tad. You have to peg
min-clock to same as max-clock and set the "über switch" to on. Guess
who figured that out and got 15 minutes of fame B-)

What is /test.txt? If the above was verbatim, Jumbo will use the default
wordlist, and will regard /test.txt as well as
test-md5crypt-sha512crypt.hs as files with input hashes.
Maybe you meant --wordlist=/test.txt or --wordlist=test.txt ?
