![]() ![]() Marco forked the project from version 2.1 of Tord's engine Glaurung, first announced by Marco in Novem, and in early 2009 Joona's Smaug, a further Glaurung 2.2 derivative, was incorporated. He indicated that those Cinebench scores I mentioned still give an idea of how fast the CPU is on one thread and all its threads.and that when it comes to chess engines, multi-thread is better.An UCI compatible open source chess engine developed by Tord Romstad, Marco Costalba, Joona Kiiski and Gary Linscott, licensed under the GPL v3.0. That's pretty obvious when considering how multithreading works in chess engines". One person said " If you can have the same NPS either with a single fast core or with two slower cores, the former is always better. One person said, " Regarding NPS (Nodes Per Second) on chess engines: if two CPUs have a similar NPS but one CPU has fewer cores (so fewer available threads) that usually means it is a bit quicker as fewer threads incurs less search inefficiency. The same holds true of the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (16 cores ( 32 threads), 3.4 ghz) - although it only just nudges out the 12900K Intel. I'm looking at Cinebench R23 scores (which admittedly has nothing to do with chess) right now and see the AMD Threadripper 3990X (64 cores (128 threads), 2.9 ghz) scoring FAR better than the Intel i9 12900K (16 cores (24 threads), 3.2 ghz). ![]() So, I've asked around on some chess forums and.people seem to disagree with you and when it comes to using chess engines for game analysis.Ĭhess engines can use all available threads, thus their multi-threaded score on benchmarks are far more important than single. Doesn't DDR5 START at 4800 MHZ?Īny thoughts.suggestions? I would just hate to spend all that $$ and find that even with the extra cores and newer generation.I am possibly getting less accomplished - or at least slower, than with that old 4 core CPU. Without more than the stock cooling that comes with each, won't these CPU's simply throttle down pretty quick if I tried to get the speed up for any period of time? I could let an engine run at full throttle all night long, crunching away on many different chess positions or games with my old i7-6700 at 3.4 ghz.Īlso, I've never heard of DDR5 4400 MHZ RAM. Despite having plenty of cores for similar reasons as I have mentioned. Also, I never really considered something like an AMD RYZEN 5900X. The clock speeds for these: Default - Turbo - Max TDP - Single Thread RatingīUT.all these number can appear to be 'smoke and mirrors' to me sometimes.particularly with the new 'P' and 'E' cores. I have not really considered any overclockable CPU's.figure they all need water-cooling and.somehow that frightens me unless of course they required ZERO maintenance. I had been considering the 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-12400 12-Core Processor based on a Tom's Hardware reviews and possibly the i5-12600 until noticing the Costco i7-27000 item. Certainly the fans would run a full speed, not that I minded. Well, I know at 16 GB, and with multiple engines running and doing database searches, internet surfing, maybe watching a video, etc at the same time.things would sometimes freeze up and at time might even shut down unexpectedly. That said, I tried to build the same thing on the DELL website.and the cost there (no discounts that I know of) is a good $200-$300 more compared to the Costco item. Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio with Waves MaxxAudio® Pro.Killer™ WiFi 6 (2x2/160) Gig+ and Bluetooth® 5.2.Tray Load DVD Drive (Reads and Writes to DVD/CD).1TB 7200 RPM Hard Drive + 512GB PCIe NVMe M.2 Solid State Drive.12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-12700 12-Core Processor.I was thinking that's about the max I really wanted to spend anyway (and am none to sure of my ability to 'build a PC'.) so I started considering it: I was at Costco yesterday and noticed a PC with the specs below. My question has to do with the new 12th generation Intel CPU's and their "P" and "E" cores and how they might play with my chess engine usage needs. I would also like to be able to game a bit - in the sense of the word as most 'gamers' think of it and was thinking the minimal RTX 3060 ti would do the job.Chessbase 'can' also use retracing for diagram rendering. I also like to pit engine vs engine in large test suites. I also use CPU Intensive chess engines A LOT (they do not really benefit from multi-threading) - for evaluating many openings in Chessbase (largely a database program, but with many other nice repertoire maintenance features) where I run engines like Stockfish or Dragon. I spend most of my time on the computer doing chess related items that are CPU intensive. and) 16 gb RAM.seems to have kicked the bucket so I am looking at a new desktop. My old HP Envy with a fairly nice Intel I7-6700 GHZ desktop (paired with a really lousy GPU.
