Hi Sarah, >>Fritz 6 = 6.0.0.74 (304 KB) >>Fritz 7 (NoMMX) = 6.0.0.76 (356 KB) >>Fritz 7 = 7, 0, 0, 1 (420 KB) >Because the file version is called 6.0.0.76 don't mean it's Fritz 6. >They could call it any version number they wish, so in this case they >forgot to change the version number. Clearly any analysis mode or test >suite should give a better idea as to how close it is to Fritz 6 than >a simple file number. Besides which would it matter if it was called >Fritz 6 and was an update to an earlier version. You still get the engine >as a bonus. well, to call it a bonus is maybe a little bit to much honor for ChessBase - problem is, that you can't load Fritz 7 (NoMMX) in the Fritz 7 GUI when you have a processor with MMX. If you have a processor WITHOUT MMX, you can't load the so called Fritz 7 standard engine... After some position tests, it seems that Fritz 7 (NoMMX) is quite near to Fritz 6, but gets different results in time. (Dependant on the position of course) Fritz 7 standard analysis totally different. Afaik Fritz 7 (NoMMX) is the last version of the Fritz 6 idea and the Fritz 7 standard - engine is something totally new from Frans... It is the version he will go on to develop for the future and for a first start in a VERY knowledge based engine, I think Frans has done a fantastic job, the engine is initially on a level with all the tops. (If up or down - who cares) It produces definitely different ideas in analysis and seems to have much more understanding about strategics. For future patches I hope that it will be possible to analyse with BOTH engines under the Fritz 7 GUI because it's always interesting to compare the analysis between those two... Greets, Thomas
