With all due respect to John Merlino, upon the actual ratings of parallel
processors against the top ten chess playing humans in the world seemed to add
30 FIDE rating points for double the speed.
Fritz on 4 GHZ (game in 30 minutes) had a FIDE rating of about 2720. (Without
Shirov's 2 games it had 2750 FIDE)
Junior on 5.6 GHZ (tournament time control) had a FIDE rating of about 2700.
(Without Leko's loss it had 2690 FIDE)
If you do the math, you get
450 MHZ 2600 FIDE (more than 2600 if game in 30 minutes)
1 GHZ 2630 FIDE (" " 2630 " " " " " )
2 GHZ 2660 FIDE (" " 2660 " " " " " )
4 GHZ 2690 FIDE (" " 2690 " " " " " )
If you read my article, on parallel processors and their losses the GM's will
learn from their mistakes and the rating of Fritz and Junior should slide down a
few (or a lot of) points.
