All games played from the John Nunn test positions available form Chessbase. I used the Faber\Pilz settings on Chessmaster since I have tried all other settings found on the net, and tried modified home settings and found that Faber\Pilz settings beat everything. Chessmaster 5500 Faber\Pilz v Chessmaster 6000 Faber\Pilz. Time 2 hrs per game. CM 5500 17 V 23 CM 6000 Time 1 hr per game. CM 5500 16 V 24 CM 6000 Time 30 secs move CM 5500 18 V 22 CM 6000 Time 15 secs move CM 5500 15 V 25 CM 6000 It is my opinion that CM 6000 using Faber\Pilz settings is the strongest available commercial chess program. I also own and have played the CM 6000 against Fritz 5 and Rebel 10, and find that the CM 6000 will win my similar margins as those quoted against the CM 5500. I do however look forward to Fritz 5.32 and am eager to try it against CM 6000 Faber\Pilz. Dan Kiski.
