My 500mhz computer beats me fairly easy ;) with Gnugo so depends on the person you're comparing.

This is something I have been wrestling with. It is kind of a theoretical question. Assuming a program that utilizes all avaliable resources perfectly. It plays the best game you could ever program it to play. How fast would the computer have to be to beat a human? I could see people argue that if the program had enough knowledge it could be a pretty slow computer (less than 100 Mhz), I could also see someone state the reality that our brains (when you sum up the computational power of an entire thinking brain) have way more processing power than a cluster of high performance workstations and so technology isn't able to provide computer hardware that would be fast enough. I think I vastly underestimate the human brain, but I would say a computer with perfect software, 32 GB of RAM (so a lot) and a 300 Mhz processor (slow processor) would be able to beat a human.
