Naum4(x4) + Perfect14: 100 games. Impressive performance!

[Tomcass]

My first 'quick and dirty' test with Naum 4.

Game in 10 minutes each engine.
Gui: Fritz 10
Ponder : Off
Naum4 Opening book: Perfect 14
All engines: Own book. (Toga with Deep Fritz 10 book)
Computer: Quad 6700.

Naum4(x4)-1 2008

Naum 4(x4) - Rybka 3 32-bit (x4) 13.5 - 6.5 +8/-1/=11 67.50%
Naum 4(x4) - Deep Fritz 10 18.5 - 1.5 +17/-0/=3 92.50%
Naum 4(x4) - Deep Hiarcs 12 15.5 - 4.5 +11/-0/=9 77.50%
Naum 4(x4) - Toga II 1.4.1SE6 (x4) 17.0 - 3.0 +15/-1/=4 85.00%
Naum 4(x4) - Zappa Mexico (x4) 15.5 - 4.5 +12/-1/=7 77.50%

No comment. How I have enjoyed the wonderful performance of Naum4 (x4) with Perfect 14!

63 wins + 34 draws + 3 losses. (80% and only 3 losses in 100 games (!!) against such powerful rivals, including Rybka 3.)

I don't know if I have done something wrong (probably) in my test, but I have seen directly about one third of the games and I feel Naum 4 (+ Perfect14) really impressive. Rybka was totally unable to keep Naum 4(x4) strength.

Simply amazing!. I am going to repeat same test with 25 minutes/game.

Regards from Barcelona.

Tom.

(In the mid game Naum NPS average (roughly): 3.600.000, Deep Fritz 10: 7.500.000 and Rybka: 160.000)

My first 'quick and dirty' test with Naum 4.
Naum 4(x4) - Rybka 3 32-bit (x4) 13.5 - 6.5 +8/-1/=11 67.50%
Naum 4(x4) - Deep Fritz 10 18.5 - 1.5 +17/-0/=3 92.50%

Naum 4(x4) - Zappa Mexico (x4) 15.5 - 4.5 +12/-1/=7 77.50%

•1)Can you post all the games, or even better to provide a PGN for download?

•2)Had Deep Hiarcs 12 and Deep Fritz 10 used 4 cores(CPUs) or one?

•3)Was Naum 4 64 bit or 32 bit?

•4)Perhaps i'm wrong but i would bet that something in your configuration/settings was wrong so that is the reason for the very lopsided results.

1.- With pleasure... but I have no idea of how to do it. Any help please?. (Is it ok for the admin that I post 100 games?. Lots of space for 10 min games).

2.- Yes. Both playing with 4 CPUs.

3.- All programmes 32 bits.

4.- So I think. I will try to discover why.

Thanks for your interest.

Tom.

... by the way, I am testing again the same engines at 25 min. game and all engines with Perfect 14 books. Only 3 games played ... but:

Naum4(x4)-2 2008

Naum 4(x4) - Deep Fritz 10 1.0 - 0.0 +1/-0/=0 100.00%
Naum 4(x4) - Deep Hiarcs 12 0.5 - 0.5 +0/-0/=1 50.00%
Naum 4(x4) - Rybka 3 32-bit (x4) 1.0 - 0.0 +1/-0/=0 100.00%
Naum 4(x4) - Toga II 1.4.1SE6 0.0 - 0.0 +0/-0/=0 0.00%
Naum 4(x4) - Zappa Mexico II 0.0 - 0.0 +0/-0/=0 0.00%

Similar start than in the previous test!.

Perfect 14 book is made from Rybka3 wins in comp-comp games. No wonder with high scores. Use Perfect 15 and get still better scores!
