Although Deep Blue was a triumph for artificial intelligence in one sense, there’s nothing intelligent about brute force calculation.ChessBase Magazine is the most comprehensive and most sophisticated chess magazine there is. In a larger context, however, solving the problem of developing a program to play chess through a brute force approach shows that computers do not understand chess in the way humans do: They cannot apply general principles taking situational variables into account. What is often overlooked in discussions about Deep Blue is that Hsu’s basic theory, that order of magnitude improvements could be achieved through software/hardware synergy, was clearly proven. The fact that roughly 10 times the number of transistors is needed to equal Deep Blue’s performance is a testament to the genius of Hsu and the Deep Blue team. Forty-four dual-core Opteron 275 chips add up to a staggering 10.25 billion transistors. What is most impressive about the Deep Blitz machine’s results is not how quickly x86-compatible microprocessors are catching up to the big iron, but rather how powerful Deep Blue was nine years ago. The data suggest that a computer using only 44 dual-core AMD Opteron 64 chips would equal Deep Blue in chess performance.

It’s interesting to consider that 32 IBM RS/6000 SP chips plus 512 ASICs could grind out 200 million positions per second in 1995 while two dual-core AMD Opteron chips can handle about 4.5 million positions per second 9 years later. Of course, the Deep Blitz machine is also roughly 2.275% the height and weight of Deep Blue so, pound-for-pound, it’s on equal footing.
However, no comparative benchmarks were run with a dual processor, dual core Intel Xeon based machine.īased on multiple chess engines, the Deep Blitz machine represents approximately 2.275% of the Deep Blue supercomputer’s chess processing power. The ChessBase company has stated that high-end Intel based PCs can process as many as 2 million positions per second, so the Deep Blitz machine’s 4 to 5 million is impressive. The Fritz 5.32 engine hit 5 million positions per second on the FritzMark. Additional FritzMark tests were run using the Deep Shredder 9, Crafty 19.17 and Fritz 5.32 chess engines with similar results.
