In general the increase is between 50 and 80 pts from P90->P200MMX >2. extrapolating to 50% we expect a plus of 20 - 25 ELO points Or 25-40... >3. a player with an advantage of 20-25 ELO may expect a win of 53% - 54% So in this case, do we assume Shredder3 being equal to Hiarcs7? If so Shredder3, running on the faster hardware, should get the 53-54%, at the moment he even has no 40%. Or does it count into the margin of error? >So, you may (almost) ignore Shredder's speed advantage. Oops. Ignoring means that Shredder3 should/would perform on a MMX166 like on that K6-200?? I don't think so.
