Go up one level in this thread


200 points is a bit much to expect for sure, but strong opening books tailored
specifically for each engine can make a surprisingly large ratings boost. When I
was playing (er rather, my computer was playing) on Playchess regularly, most of
the guys with the top ratings spent ridiculous amounts of time fine tuning their
opening books.

Outside of that, check the usual fences: hash size, 3,4,5, some 6 man tb's, tb
cache, set opening learning on (but use a different book for each individual
engine), etc...
