The Shredder version for its own GUI is a UCI engine. After purchasing Shredder 7 you can get a free update to both versions of Shredder 7.04. The two engines are identical apart from the interface. I'm not sure whether or not there are any speed differences caused by the interface, but if there are they are minimal. However, the Shredder 7 opening book is used more efficiently (more aggressively) by the Classic GUI, which leads to better tournament results.
