In case you have a single-CPU Junior 9 will be as strong as DeepJunio 9. There will be simply no difference. If you get 30% nps more it is possible you have a P4 with Hyperthreading enabled which means the nps goes up, but not the playing strength (due to the loss in search efficiency - difficult topic). If you have a Dual a speedup of 30% seems suspicious low. Besides that, 30% faster means about 20 elopoints stronger. regards Joachim
