(We do have a GPU-enabled format > for the newer WinZip/AES archives, but not for the old PKZIP.) I do not completely agree, but it depends on the number of files in the zip archive. If you have a single file, then yes - it does not matter. If you have at least several files, then you get additional verifiers and then you can do most of the work on the GPUs leaving decryption/decompression/CRC check on the CPU for just a very small subset of the password candidates. A zip archive with 4-5 files in it can greatly benefit from GPU processing, I remember speeds exceeding 1B/s on a 7970. But I also remember being asked a lot of times why cracking old zip format is much slower than what I've tweeted a while ago and I have to explain the same thing over and over again.
