Hi all, If we take Deep Shredder 9 on a single AMD 3500+ and calculate its ELO by letting it play 100’000 tournaments games at tournament time control (40 moves 2 hours…) Then we do the same but with an AMD 64-X2 4600+ which lets say is 2x faster. Lets assume that this brings 40 ELO points more. Now we do the same testing but at blitz time control 3min. + 0sec. Should we assume that the ELO difference is the same ?? My assumption is that the margin should be bigger the shorter the time control is. Why, because the deeper the engine goes the more difficulty it will have to go deeper. So know, in the past we used to say that 2x faster is around 50 ELO points more. Can we say the same today with e.g. Deep Shredder 9 on a AMD 64-3500+ and AMD 64-X2 4600+ ? Thanks for your input Regards,
