It is our pleasure to release Stockfish 11 to our fans and supporters.
This version 11 of Stockfish is 50 Elo stronger than the last version, and 150 Elo stronger than the version which famously lost a match to AlphaZero two years ago. This makes Stockfish the strongest chess engine running on
your smartphone or normal desktop PC, and we estimate that on a modern four cores CPU, Stockfish 11 could give 1:1000 time odds to the human chess champion having classical time control, and be on par with him.
In October 2019 Stockfish has regained its crown in the TCEC competition, beating in the superfinal of season 16 an evolution of the neural-network engine Leela that had won the previous season. This clash of style between an alpha-beta and an neural-network engine produced spectacular chess as always, with Stockfish [emerging victorious this time].

What does that mean "1:1000 time odds to the human chess champion and be on par with them"? Can you rephrase it? On my 8-core, what ELO-range could I expect? That's the thing I could understand.
