Hi Jonas, >>By equal i mean: 1.3 Ghz Athlon > >No > >I believe that nemeth never played 120/40 against programs on 1.3 Ghz athlon or >similiar hardware. Afaik he has played 120/40 against 1 GHz PIII from a friend of him - anyway, what you do not understand, hardware is not that important in this issue, there are positions and playing ideas Eduard shows us from time to time where different engines play extremely unsound... They do not see the idea behind those moves, you could give them a 100 GHz CPU and they still play unsound. The task of the human opponent is to get them into such positions. And that is much easier when throwing them early out of book and then to prepare the patterns the engine does not understand. That is the advantage of the human side - you have ideas in your brain, you know about certain patterns... And Eduard is very good in such things. Also he has posted in CSS-Forum some month ago quite many 120/40 games against Fritz, Shredder - against almost every professional engine, including both Tiger. (But he said with both it is not that easy to get them where he wants, different to Fritz). Wether that is on PIII/600 or Athlon 1800 does not mean that much - if the combination is to deep speed does not help the engines - knowledge is needed and that's the point where it lacks...
