hi pavel. not a stupid question at all. i may be wrong but in order to get a rough comparison, here is the formula: 1) add about 20% extra time for the processor speed difference(40 in 2'12'') 2) considering that about 50% of the moves are common (more with some, less with others, add another 50% to the above calculation (40 in 3'18'') you will however never get the same depth and quality of moves with ponder off because i have seen programmes think for as long as 35 minutes sometimes whereas with ponder off the time taken for each move will be roughly the same. i can guarantee that you will soon get fed up of playing with such long time controls rajen On January 10, 2002 at 16:44:57, pavel wrote: >I have a Pentium III 1Ghz 512mb ram > >SSDF top machine is an athlon 1200 256mb ram. > >My question, whats a good time control in my computer to make a match comparable >to a 60/120, 40/40, all/40 time control in an athlon 1200 in SSDF? > >considering the fact that I will running in a single processor and with ponder >off. > >really stupid question, uh? > >pavs ;)
