That question is not so easy to answer as it might appear.
Depends on the position and your experience.
As for Analysis I recommend still Fritz 7.008 (free Fritz 7 update)
and Chessmaster 9000 Mentor with Selective search = 12.
Analysing with both programs is probably the best you can do in Windows.
Chessmaster is an incredible strong attacker. Fritz has more knowledge and is
slightly better in some endgames.
Maybe Chess Tiger 14 is also worth considering for Analysis. I dont know.

It is not necessary to buy the latest versions of chessprograms for Analysis.
Sometimes older versions are better for that purpose.
