This is probably a fairly basic question but I am not sure as to the answer. While looking at all my various chess programs and engines (all in the Fritz 6 GUI except the 2 Tigers and Rebel), I noticed a HUGE difference in nodes per sec, and depth. I'm on a 333Mhz and the Kn varies from a low (in a typical echange Gruenfeld middlegame) of 7 up to 222. Depth varies from 6 up to 19. My question is, how does nps and depth correlate to strength? It seems the medium fast searchers are stronger positionally while the deeper searchers excel in tactics. But then there are the anomalies like Hiarcs that search extremely slow but are extremely strong. Are the fast searchers better than slow in Blitz? Thanks
