Fritz vs Rybka?

Question

I know that Rybka is stronger than Fritz (though I'm not sure about Fritz 11), but as an amateur planning to use a program for analyzing my game, and to improve my rating, what would be a better program to invest in?

And also what about Chess Master?

Answer 1

If you are an ametuer, there are free gui's to download and very strong free ware that can do the job u want. e.g. fruit, toga, and rybka 1.0 beta.  but if u need to spend bread to feel like u r getting something...chessbase is probably ur best bet...more training features...If you want the strongest engine Rybka 2.3.2a is the one until 3.0 comes out.

Answer 2

Rybka is the strongest chess program On the entire planet.  Its ordered to destory any machine/powerfullest human chess player.  It would win fritz easily.every move rybka moves is distructive.

Answer 3

Definantly chessbase(you can get chessbaselight for free as chessbase is quite expensive) as it has a huge database and built in analysis engine. If you want to add the best analysis engine to that you can get Rybka, although its not needed unless you are 2000+ in rating. Chess Master is good to play against and basic things such as endings, but thats pretty much it.
