In addition, 'Tactical mode' can now also be assigned an exact number of threads, giving you additional flexibility. You can certainly look forward to using this latest version of the true wizard among the chess programs! The enhanced 'Tactical mode' transforms Houdini 6 into the most ingenious position solver of all time and improves again on the records held by previous versions in tactical benchmark tests. Despite all the detailed technical improvements, Houdini has kept its creative and imaginative style of play, and where other programs see no future or are locked into a draw, Houdini delivers surprise after surprise with hidden resources. Houdini 6 delivers particularly exceptional results on systems with a large number of CPUs, and can run up to threads on high-end hardware.
With Houdini 6, you not only gain in terms of computing power, but also in terms of time! The new engine delivers better performance even if you only let it calculate for half as long as the previous version! Houdini 6 has been put to the test in various areas and thoroughly refined in all the right places: position evaluation, search, time management and use of the endgame tablebases have been improved, as has parallel processing.
