There may be something misunderstanding: there are only around 4000 computers
connect to SETI at one moment. It is too far form the a normal supercomputer
(because of long and worse connections). The result of 26.42 tera-flops has been
done for all years of SETI project (and I think ASCI-White do its 12.3 teraflops
in 1 sec). This performance is not enough for beating neither Kasparov nor
Krammnik. In other word, Krammik has to play a match with SETI computers in 2-3
years for losing it.
