Chess engine: Lizard 10 NNUE

 


Lizard - UCI chess engine and NNUE

v.10:
Plays a bit above 2650 in bullet and blitz. Around 40-ish elo higher than 9.3.1, particularly if you don't have a processor that can use AvxVnni.

For the sake of my sanity (and because .NET can't/doesn't autovectorize NNUE code), this requires AVX2.

Use the Lizard-win-x64-pext.exe binary if you have a modern processor.
If you don't have PEXT, or have an AMD processor older than Zen 3, you should probably use the non-pext Lizard-win-x64.exe binary. It might be worth trying both though because of how different processors handle PEXT.
