Crafty on equal hardware probably doesn't stand a realistic chance against Shredder. Only Fritz scores at least 45% against Shredder on the latest SSDF. Junior and Hiarcs score at least 40%. Crafty would be behind those engines on equal hardware by a non-trivial margin (take the Junior-Crafty 10x experiment for example). What is interesting about a Shredder-Crafty match where Crafty is at a hardware _disadvantage_? BTW, that really explains a lot about why he is #1 on ICC. You have a freakin' FX53 and you're at a hardware disadvantage! Wow...
