Awesome and really looking forward to this.

Just based on the hard stats alone, I believe LZ has a better than even chance.

This is “AQ” 2.1.1 on 4xGPU (4x Nvidia V100) using 24 threads getting about 20000 pp/s

Compared to for example the 2500pp/s system of the GTX970 that won against Haylee last week(s) or so.

This is the second most current LeelaZero network (10block) that was recently promoted… you see it beat the top spec’d (20000pp/s) AQ211 three times, and in fact its average CGOS score is only about 150 points lower than that of the top level AQ (on max hardware) yet only using a single GTX970.

This is why I say that this match this week, LeelaZero is expected to win, because they will be using 4x GX1080’s instead of just a single GTX 970.

A single 1080Ti on latest LZ getting 3552, only 150 points beneath the theoretical max of AQ.

So yeah, LZ already Pro!
