Stockfish 1.6.3 JA update available

[Frank Quisinsky]

Hello Marco,

for SWCR rating list (32-Bit version) I used Stockfish 1.6.0. Should I update to version 1.6.3. I am thinking about it. Many versions and 720 games to play with longer time controls need a lot of time, also with 3 machines I used.

It would be great if you can give me a hint (update: yes or no).

Thanks for Stockfish 1.6.3 again.

If you are not using an OCTAL machine you can still run with 1.6.0, as clearly stated many times 1.6.x versions have all THE SAME functionality and speed so have the same ELO.

If you experienced crashes then update to 1.6.3 otherwise stay with 1.6.0


So my hint is : NO

Hi Marco,

no, 2x Dual Core, 1x Quad Core.
No crashes, good time management, ponder works all works fine with 1.6.0.

Thanks for your time.
Quit clear now.
