I'm not entirely sure but I believe that was the same engine that is still
present in CM7000. CM8000 will have a somewhat stronger engine (a bit faster
anyway) probably the same as The King that won Dutch championship 1998, or maybe
with a few small improvements?

CM only allows manual games so maybe they could use a volunteer for that in the
SSDF? I think it is safe to say that CM could still do well on the hardware you
mention, the top programs don't differ that much anyway in SSDF results. I read
that Johan de Koning did develop his engines on K6. Just extrapolate from P90
results and then subtract for inflation.. How much? Hard to say.
