In the below game white played the move 77.Rc2?? with an eval of +1.16. On the following move black, of course, immediately gave check with 77...Bf5+! and stole the rook with an eval of -6.69. It is rather obvious that even a 1600 human player would not have made such a laughable blunder only 1 ply ahead. My question is was this blunder the result of the ridiculously overclocked cpu? Shredder 7 is not known for such blunders and in a repeat of the position on my machine my Xeons did not even consider that move let alone play it. If this isn't proof enough that overclocked cpu's are unstable then I don't know what is...
