First, this is the kind of approach that fits GPUs. Independent calculations.

You got that right. You yourself should start experimenting with non alpha-beta search methods and exploring other options. Not long ago you were _shocked_ to find out the method worked so well for checkers. I am pretty sure if I implemented checkers on gpu it would turn out to be a pretty strong one.

Second, it is not quite correct to "normalize" the clock speeds. There is a reason the GPU clock is not any faster. I would report the actual numbers, not manipulated numbers that would be correct if the GPU could somehow be made 2+x faster...

It will be a 100x relative to a 1.25ghz computer and a 41x speed up compared to a 3 ghz computer as I stated. I find the former better because it tells me how efficient my code is. I have 114 cores in total so a 100x speedup says about 87% efficiency. But depending on the audience (f.i marketing) you may be required to report numbers against an i7 running on 4 cores if that is what is being used right now for their business. I have even seen comparisons based on equal cost (multi-gpu vs cpu cluster)...
