It is enough if you take a look at the >games. At the moment (no conclusion) it does not look very good for Gadnalf in >my test, 2.5-7.5 vs. Shredder 6 and 2.5-7.5 vs. Fritz 7a. It is possible that one of the reasons is that gandalf suffers from your hardware. I know that gandalf is one of the programs that earn more speed from faster CPU. It should not justify 200 elo difference that is suggested by 2.5-7.5 but it can easily justifies 70 elo difference. I remember that at least Gandalf4.32h is one of the programs that earns more from faster hardware. That Gandalf may be about 5 times slower than Junior in nodes per second when you use slow hardware and only 2-3 times slower than Junior in nodes per seconds when you use fast hardware. I am not sure about the exact number and it is only the idea. Uri
