I have the results from over 1.000 games from different people on faster hardware. I think with 40 moves in 40 minutes is Fritz 30-50 ELO stronger then Gandalf 4.32f. I don´t know how strong is Gandalf with 40 moves in 120 minutes on a fast system. I believe Fritz is 0-30 ELO stronger ! The ELO list in my webpage is at the moment not very good, not enough games and I can not believe that Gandalf is 30 stronger then Fritz ! But I am sure, this program played a fantistic attack chess and is for analyses with longer time controls the best program which I saw ! Gandalf has no big problems against SOS and LGoliath on a fast system (55-60%). But against Junior, Crafty and ... Ikarus when I look in the results from other people and in my results. Gandalf 4.32f - WB SOS 7.0 : 1.0 (CCE result) Gandalf 4.32f - CB SOS 13.5 : 8.5 (40 moves in 40 minutes, ponder = on) Gandalf 4.32f - WB LGoliath 2.8 21.5 : 14.5 (40 moves in 40 minutes on a Celeron 533 without ponder) ! Gandalf 4.32f - WB LGoliath 2.9a 6.5 : 4.5 (40 moves in 40 minutes on a Dual Celeron 500 MHz) ! Gandalf 4.32f - CB LGoliath YT 7.5 : 2.5 (Autoplayer with tournament time 40 moves in 120 minutes, Pentium III 900 for Gandalf and Athlon 1 GHz for LGoliath) But on my machine against Ikarus ... at the moment Gandalf 4.32f - Ikarus 0.18 4.5 : 7.5 !! The SSDF machines are very slow. An AMD K6-2 450 MHz is not good for Gandalf and this processor standard is 2 years old ! When you buy at the moment a normaly PC you get a PC with 800 MHz or 1 GHz ! Results on an actual hardware are more accurate and ... better for Gandalf ... ! But this is the old SSDF problem. The results from the SSDF are OK, maybe I think Gandalf is 20-30 ELO stronger on an AMD K6-2 450 MHz ! We will see :-) You can find a lot of Gandalf 4.32f games from different people with longer time controls on fast systems, see my News Ticker ! Best Frank
