We ran the 32-core on kgs for a while. I think it was about 1 stone stronger than the 2 core version. The two core (ManyFaces) is a weak 1 kyu. I think the 32-core was a weak 1 dan. I don’t remember the account name so I can’t check the rating.
David Fotland has done quite a bit with a 32-core machine, I believe. How much stronger is MFG on 32 cores versus 4, for the same time limits, on 19x19 Go? Hopefully, "how much stronger" would be tested with something other than self-play against a weaker program - play on KGS, or CGOS, or something more diverse than a weaker clone of oneself.
