Hi, I just brought a new PC, can you tell me if it's powerful and if a chess engine like Houdini will play very strong on it. AMD Phenom FX 3500 8 core 4GHz processor GBRAM and hard drive is 50GB

like 30 years ago or so
when deep thought or something on the deep blue supercomputer was run
it has the elo of 2600 or something

now an archaic PC (with good engines) can achieve the elo of 3400 smile
