It is not clear.
It is possible that Fritz with the 8 processors is clearly different.

You assume that Fritz with 8 processors and Fritz with 1 processor have the same
evaluation function.

It is possible that the evaluation function is dependent on the time control and
the hardware and in this case Deep Fritz is going to play clearly different
moves and not the same moves faster.
