Those are indeed awesome results. I'd be curious to know how it does against Rybka 4. I hope that someone runs the test.

Code: Select all

I am running a 50 games test against DR4 right now.
Conditions: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T 3200 Mhz,F12 gui (Fritzmark 23,1)
TC Blitz 2m+2s, 512 Mb Hash, 50 privatbook positions, ponder off

After 20 games +5 -4 = 11 for Houdini 1.02

I will update this later
Kind Regards Bram

Match ended in a (for me) surprising win for Houdini 1.02
