Chiron 3 is about 60 points stronger than Chiron 2, supports multiple processors, Polyglot and CTG opening books, several endgame tablebases formats (Syzygy, Gaviota, ...). If you want a chance to win against Chiron, you can limit its playing strength (feedbacks are welcome). If you have played Ubisoft's Watchdogs you might already have played against a much weaker version of Chiron.
Chiron comes in both Chessbase and Open Exchange formats.
