Go up one level in this thread


I was very much impressed by ChessTiger2004 recently, that performs very
strongly on my computers, to an extent that I am much surprised by some bad
results by others, especially in the SSDF matches. But of course I haven't
played 1000s of games with it yet :).

When it is about general news the engine of the year should maybe be Diep that
finished 3rd in the WCCC and won the following tournament in Leiden too.

Talking about huge improvements Movei also comes to mind. I constantly have to
change its sparring partners - engines like MChess and ChessSystemTal are no
match anymore, when they used to spank little Movei only half a year ago. I
think Movei has reached ChessGenius level by now ( the chessprogram I mean).

When it is about the strongest engine of the year, that's boring :)

PS: And I don't know even half of the engines in your list, so I can't commment.
Just too many of them these days ..
