IE I have run on an 8-cpu opteron and know what it looks >like speed-wise as well. I've not run on any opteron beyond 8-way yet... The P4 3.0Ghz is 66% faster than the 2.0Ghz. It benches 1.23M nps. Crafty had a 4x time odds (8h vs 2h). The 4-way did more NPS than that. Way more. (1.23*4=4.92M). Even at 5x time odds it'd be tough. That's only 6.15M nps. >>The games will be played on ICC. >> >>Bob, feel free to send me learning files, books, special instructions, whatever. >> This will be just like a championship. > >I would use the same books on the ftp.
