Go up one level in this thread


>Hardware is part of the program.
How would you test the strength of dedicated units when their hardware veries so
much?

its true to some extent..sometimes i test computers with different hardware but
the resluts will generally always be true to the hardware

the stronger the hardware used in a dedicated unit ,then the more powerful the
rating

there will be no computer running on a Motoroloa 68000 32 bit  processor that
could lose to a computer running on an 1806 processor
no matter how powerful the code for the chess program


but every year it seems we have the same resulting discussions for the WCCC...
this program lost because it was not running on a dual operton..or   ..if we
used a qaud opteron we would have preformed better..etc.etc.
