New Hitech Computer Chess Success

2460. Over this span it has scored 181 against players rated below it, and 38 against players rated above it. Of the eight points it lost against players rated above it, three were losses to International Grandmaster's, three were losses to International Master's, and there were two draws against players rated over 2500, (one an International Master). From previous tournaments rated by FIDE, the international chess federation, Hitech has achieved a performance worthy of a FIDE rating. However, at present FIDE is declining to rate computers. Hitech has met every qualification but one for achieving a rating—it is not a human. If Hitech were eligible for a rating, its FIDE rating would be 2350, which would qualify it for the FIDE Master title.
