Komodo 8 64-bit 8CPU v Stockfish 021014 64-bit 8CPU Rematch

If you put the two matches together they are exactly equal. Very interesting to see the two engines so closely matched. I am sure for TCEC there will be a slight improvement in both engines. But Komodo tends to do well at very long time controls and very powerful hardware, so Komodo probably should be favored by a super tiny margin. It certainly would not surprise me if SF beats Komodo though ... the TCEC final is quite comprehensive but with such evenly matched engines and so few games, anything can happen. What is certain is that the super final will be between Komodo and SF.

Agreed.
