!! NEW !! Komodo 2.03 ( 64x & 32x for Windows , Linux & Mac) + !!! NEW PGO high performance version

Release 2.01 was short lived due to problems.

Version 2.03 is to be viewed as a separate version, not just a bug fix release as it has some improvements, perhaps 5-10 additional ELO.

But it also has a major bug fix that has caused problems in testing. This bug has been in Komodo since the beginning of time ...

Komodo 2.03 is significantly stronger than Komodo 1.3.

Various platform specific versions will be posted as they become available and there may be multiple versions for your platform. If you don't see anything, check back frequently. At the time of this post only 2 version are ready, the Android version and the Mac version. But more will soon follow. Some versions may run better on your machine than others so you may wish to use the version that runs fastest on your hardware.



Again, many thanks to Jim Ablett and Dann Corbit and Aart Bilk for helping us debug and compile. Clemens Keck was very helpful also in helping me test.

Feedback is always welcome.

Komodo 2.03 compiled by Jim Ablett
Windows and Linux 32 and 64 bit
No sse4.2


also ,,,


Newer Jim Ablett compiles: mediafire.com d27d64mq0emcyeu

Here are new windows compiles which use the much stronger windows api function 'ExitProcess(0)' in place of 'exit(0).
These will exit immediately and all processes will be terminated. Very brute force & not very elegant, but gets the job done.

Ipman.




please test and inform which are strongest versions

Thanks for posting

Komodo 2.03 for high performance computers is now avaiable from the komodochess web site.

It is fast, PGO compiled to use the Advanced Bit Manipulation instructions provided with AMD and i7 chips.

It's a bit of a misnomer to call this the "sse4.2" version as Komodo does not use any sse4.2 instructions. It only uses the fast 64 bit popcount instruction which is NOT part of the sse4.2 instruction set but is often treated as if it is. It just happens to be included in Intel chips that also support the sse4.2 instruction set and it's part of the ABM instructions introduced originally by AMD.

This binary works well on AMD and Intel i7 and for those machines is significantly faster than the Jim Ablett versions which do not support ABM.

Dann Corbit worked hard on providing this for me and his help is greatly appreciated.

Jim Ablett has also been a huge help and his binaries are better by far than anything I can produce for non-see4 machines.
