Eduard, Interesting results so far. Please post the settings. In recent tournaments posted here Aristarch 4.50 has had very strong results. On my AMD 64 3000+, 200MB hash, at 40' + 30", no tablebases (Pro Deo can’t use TBs), I have a 30 game match in Shredder 8 CB GUI, alternating colors, ponder off, Pro Deo 1.0 (Rebel 2 setting) v Aristarch 4.50 using the 15 Fischer Random Chess openings where the king and rooks (only) are in their classical starting chess positions so that normal rules of castling apply. CB/engines not set up to play true FRC, however, by using the 15 selected positions only you do get true FRC games. After ten games it’s 8-2 in favor of Pro Deo: Pro Deo 6 wins, 4 draws, and no losses. Average length of the games is 64 moves which adds an additional 32 minutes to each engine clock making max game time for each engine’s thinking time about 72 minutes on average. I understand that both Pro Deo and Aristarch play better at longer time controls. This match should be a good test of pure engine strength. So far I am impressed with Pro Deo’s performance. I’ll post final results here and make games available to all. Chris
