Finely (in the end of 2010) SCCT's strongest chess engine is 'Houdini 1.5 x64 T4'

Congratulations to Robert Houdart !!!

Houdini 1.5 x64 T4's Performance is just Incredible so far,in other words almost:'Perfect' !!
After 400 games,Houdini performed +73 elo better than Rybka 4 x64 T4 (default)
Note:during Houdini test,it was used slightly different version of Perfect 2010 book (private)

thanks sedat--

i wasn't even aware of this rating list (you need a better PR team ). just to clarify, houdini used the same book as its opponents correct? otherwise i have to question the results as houdini may have had an improved position out of book.
