Kramnik won and drew Fritz 6 on 4 GHZ.
Kramnik also won Junior 6 on 5.6 GHZ.
He's the only one to win two games of "moderate fast" relative to Deeper Blue.

According to marketing of computers, doubling of computer speed is every 18
months.
Also, doubling computer speed could add 30 FIDE rating points.
Therefore, 18 months later means adding 30 FIDE rating points, if the trend of
Moore's Law continues.

Under present conditions with a parallel processor an 8 GHZ is possible.
(1 GHZ multiplied by 8).
