Hi,
there is a quantum leap with calculations ability, comparing the Super Nova and one of the H8 successors (here, the Emerald Classic):
Consolation for the little Super Nova: it prevails as far as strategy is concerned (so yes, better chess knowledge...)
According to my estimation, the Emerald H8 (10Mhz, as 20/2) is roughly twice faster than the 6301Y of the Super Nova. Of course, as less chess knowledge appears to be used, the evaluation function is expected to be faster by itself (irrespective of the MCU speed); both factors result in more NPS for the Emerald.

I cant see that the test differenciates any big difference between these 2 models. It mainly shows the h8 emerald beeing superior.
If the test should have the capability to show differences concerning supernovas speculative playing style, it should be visible, isnt it ?!
Maybe the peak in the opening section is an indicator. It could mean supernova knows how to develop and come out good of openings and getting a good middle game position.
Another indicator could be that although h8 emerald is faster, there is not really many areas where emerald is huge better beside combinations.
Normally a faster machine should be better in all fields, seems supernova can compensate with something
