Subject: Fritz 7 Benchmark

This is an extract from the Fritz 7 helpfile

"A typical FritzMark for a 1 GHz Athlon with 128 MB hash tables is 620."

"The chess benchmark also gives you the number of positions the engine is
generating and evaluating per second. This value (in “kilo nodes”) is
independent of hash tables, and reflects mainly the processor speed. On our
fastest engines you should get roughly 60-80% of the nominal clock frequency of
the processor (i.e., on a 1 GHz processor the engine should produce roughly
600,000 to 800,000 positions per second)."

I happen to have a 1 GHZ Athlon and I get the following figures

FritzMark 648
KNPS 505

The FritzMark maybe near enough but the KNPS doesn't really agree with
Chessbase's figures. Either the information given in the Chessbase helpfile is
incorrect or there is something wrong with my computer or setup.

Is there anyone out there with a 1 GHZ athlon and Fritz 7 who will post there
benchmark for comparison?
