Dear Alexandre,

You will get more than 10 and less than 100 point increase.  More importantly,
you will get better and faster responses for quick time control games. That is
the real benefit of faster computers.  The time will come where PCs will search
10,000,000 nodes in five seconds.  We can then waste less time playing chess and
solving chess puzzles and more time bicycling, hiking and gardening ...etc.

Enjoy your new computer.
