The history of the game of chess knows around 30 players who have at some point exceeded the dream mark of 2600 Elo points.
On the other hand this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chess_players_by_peak_FIDE_rating https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chess_players_by_peak_... puts 125 at over 2700
- chucksmash 4y agoI don't think the list of other confessed GM cheaters has this same qualifier of "is a super GM" or "is ranked above 2700," however. Grandmaster rank is achieved via a peak Elo of 2500 plus gaining two grandmaster norms[1].

- Lerc 4y agohttps://ratings.fide.com/profile/2093596 https://ratings.fide.com/profile/2093596 says Hans Niemann has a rating of 2699 You were replying to a comment that said "Anonymous Confessed GM"s on the cheating list, most of them with a rating much higher than Neimann's.
- chucksmash 4y agoThat qualification is true of Hans Niemann's Elo given in the table - at the time of the chess.com cheating - of 2465, when he was an IM with a single GM norm. The highest rated "Anonymous Confessed GM" in this table in the report is a 2686 Elo.
