Abstract/Summary

This is the report of the 'TCEC Cup 5' computational experiment, the 5th TCEC knockout event and the second major part of TCEC’s 17th season. It started on 24th April 2020 and featured the best 16 available engines of the ‘TCEC 17’ league event. The games were held at Rapid tempo, the different format calling for different optimal settings in the engines. This enabled a comparison with performance at slower tempi although both are at super-GM level. STOCKFISH defeated LEELA CHESS ZERO in the Final. All decisive games in the supplementary data have been played out by FRITZ17 at search depth 24 to enable and to benchmark endgame practice.
