Chess engine: Black Marlin 3.0 NNUE

Rating CEDR=2868

Black Marlin 3.0 is mostly NNUE and evaluation improvements in general. It is also capable of playing Chess960 although there is no estimate on its strength.

Which Binary to Download? (Windows)
Before everything, the main branch on GitHub is always the strongest version and is configured to compile for the CPU of the specific machine. Building from source will always give you the strongest possible engine.

The binaries require the instructions in their names (e.g. blackmarlin-popcnt-avx2.exe will require popcnt and avx2 instructions).

Binaries Ordered by Runtime Performance:

AVX512F + POPCNT
AVX2 + POPCNT
SSE4.2 + POPCNT
SSSE3 + POPCNT
POPCNT
