An Update To Engine 40x: 40x(2)!

Post by geots »

Possibly I need an upgraded upgrade. Houdini and Strelka 5.5 remind me of Bobby Bowden when he was at Fla. State. When asked who he had rather play- Oklahoma or Nebraska- he said that was like comparing the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean- they'll both drown you. I am afraid Critter has fallen from Grace- if he was ever on top of her to begin with.



Intel i5 w/4TCs
Fritz 11 gui
1CPU/64bit

128MB hash
Bases=NONE (Houdini used Nalimovs)
Ponder_Learning=OFF
Perfect 12.32 book w/12-move limit
40/3 Repeating- Adapted to benched 40/4
Match=50 games
