Yes...TCEC, but Subscribers who pay about $100/yr will not.

I know I harp on this...but it's maddening! No update given to us in...how long?? :cry:

11.3 is coming with quite a significant boost. Marc said it on the TCEC chat.

No, but I would guess it would be similar (or stronger) than the current dev version playing in TCEC.

Perhaps you mispoke then.
You said "11.3 is coming with quite a significant boost"
Then you say it should be "similar or stronger".

Anyway, I bet they wait until later in TCEC to put a new version out...so likely not in the next couple of weeks.
