CM8000 might be weaker or even significantly weaker than CM6000. For that matter, it could just as well be stronger. Without results noone knows, which have been mentioned quite a few times by now. However, you can't make any such conclusions based on the results of CM8000 alone. As a matter of fact, the lack of an updated opening book, learning and tablebases are significant disadvantages in this day and age. And it guarantees an absolute loss to all semi-recent engines given the SSDF match format IMO. That would most likely apply to CM6000 as well. Regards, Mogens
