Go up one level in this thread


have you ever used Shredder ( or a gilette razor)?

Shredder is amazing. It is packaged as a 'deep' product for half the cost of
other chessbase 'deep' products. it even comes with it's own optional to use
interface- "classic."
Classic has good tablebase integration for look-up. It also has a special
'triple-brain' feature, which works even on single processor machines.
Each processor, or hyper-thread, can run a different engine! the program
interface then choses the most apropriate move.
It is certainly a valid criticism that on a single processor without
hyperthreading this optional feature can be misused in that it taxes recources
which could be used to deepen a search.
but it can alsbe used well to compare how different personality settings for the
engine might respond to a position and your style of playing for future games.
best regards,
marc

ps (apparently whoever counted your brain cells for you had some effect, because
you cite this in your post.)
