#STOCKFISH CHESS SKILL LEVEL PC#

As a second opinion, record the PGN of your games against the stockfish at its various levels and then go to, The strength with the quad core pi2/3 should be 3100+ strength. Setskilllevel (15) set current engine's elo rating (ignoring skill level) stockfish. If you could get a hold of a copy of a chessmaster game and experiment with the levels until you get mostly draws, I'd say that should give you a really good indicator. The results in the first two links don't seem to have any examples of stockfish set to any level besides the highest one. I'll do some searching & see if anything is out there but they all seem fixated on which one has the highest maximum rating & can beat all the others.Ĭhessmaster rates its characters. If I can find 1 engine with ELO ratings as a benchmark I'll do that, the problem is they all seem to give an ELO rating for maximum strength but not the lower levels & its the lower levels I am interested in. Even if it's been done, the results often aren't publicized. Maybe someone out there has done this, but then again, maybe not.

You'd set up the tournament on your PC and just let it run. They would have to play a good number of games. The next best way is to set up an engine-engine tournament between Stockfish (Level 5) and another engine of approximately similar strength which is listed on the engine rating lists. That would take lots of time and effort, so I don't see that happening. The most accurate way of determining this would be for some officially rated player to play many games against the engine at that level under tournament conditions. My guess is that Level 5 would be significantly above 1000 elo, but where exactly, I don't know.
