From a respectable and an independent engine tester, Sedat Canbaz:
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)

In my opinion this is enough games to determine which of the 3 engines is strongest at this time control. More games are needed for strength difference however.

Houdini was playing with split depth 14.
Because of somewhat exaggerated score in the first match I will repeat the match with additional 50 games.

This is just absolutely f*cking amazing.
It's like someone is beating Michael Jordan 30-4 in a 1-on-1 basketball game.

Fritz Benchmark: Speed 26,73 KNS 12.828
