To me it was not really a question of strenght, when i bought my Dual MP 1600+, but a question of actually being able to run SMP programs the way they were meant to, also to have engine tournaments with ponder=on, analysis with 2 engines simultaniously and a few other non chess related reasons. I am at the moment running a Gauntlet with Deep Junior 7, where it uses 1 processor and ponder=on, after that i will run the gauntlet over again, but with DJ7 using 2 processors and ponder=off, mainly to see if it will do much better or just a little bit better. It is true that DF not only refuses to use the 2nd processor, but sometimes even get's slower with 2 processors than with one!! i have stopped using it all together as SMP. Regards Jonas
