KLOECOA00E97V pgn files are a series of chess opening positions designed specifically for running engine versus engine matches to determine strength. Each test suite contains positions ranging from ECO (Encyclopedia of Chess Openings) A00 to E97 with 8 half moves. The smallest suite has 25 unique starting positions.

*    Komodo 8 for Windows, Linux and OSX     *
**********************************************

Komodo 8 is an improvement over all previous Komodo versions and
supports multi-core computers and tablebases.

Estimated Elo gains from the last release, Komodo 7a, are about 40 points
on one thread, 45 on two, and 50 on four or more threads, based on
results against other top engines at 2' + 1".

At blitz levels (2' + 1") Komodo 8 beat Komodo 7a (the last release) by 50 elo
in a direct match on one thread of 2000 games, by 57 elo on two threads
(2500 games), by 65 elo on four threads (1000 games), and by 45 elo on one
thread at 5' + 3". Komodo 8 defeated the top rated commercial engine by 30
to 43 elo points in direct matches at 2' + 1" on one, two, and four threads.

Komodo 8 is expected to obtain the top rating on the majority of the
best-known chess engine rating lists. Earlier versions of Komodo have
won highly respected engine tournaments such as TCEC and CCT.

Some features in Komodo 8:
- TableBase (Syzygy) support
- multi-core support
- automatic SSE4.2 detection
- evaluation improvements
  - handling of closed positions
  - king safety
  - pawn structure
- search improvements
- many others[/Hide]

That Komodo 8 is having difficulty even with Stockfish 5 is bad news for Komodo 8, as many Testers say that latest Stockfish development versions are 40-45 ELO stronger than Stockfish 5.
I have also verified this in my online Engine-Engine Matches.
It is my conclusion that overall latest Stockfish is definitely stronger than Komodo 8.
Komodo 8 outshines Stockfish only in a  very few situations and that too, rarely, but overall one does get the feeling that Stockfish is definitely stronger.
