About The DGT Smart Board - Without Pieces

The DGT Smart Board brings the benefits of this classic electronic chess interface board to a wider audience by replacing wood with a plastic board. This product is the chessboard only, assuming you already have a set of compatible DGT pieces. Accessories such as the DGT Pi or a DGT 3000 clock are also available for purchase.

The innovative design has a wood print finish and a smaller footprint with a modern look. It's lightweight and thinner than the wood boards. The new board also scans faster and has improved energy efficiency. It is compatible with all current DGT pieces in both wood and plastic. Smart Boards can be used in many different ways for home, club, or events. They interface with Windows OS (or DGT Pi which is sold separately).

Online Play - Play with opponents from around the world using Smart Board as your interface for move input on Playchess.com. Moves can be shown on a DGT3000 chess clock that connects to the Smart Board.
Record Games - Use the board to record your games for review and analysis at a later time
Computer Play and Training - Smart Board works with the best chess playing software programs on your Windows Based PC or laptop (not Mac unless using emulation software for Windows).
Chess Computer Opponent - Turn your Smart Board into a computer play machine by adding DGT Pi accessory. Automatically store the games played for publication or analysis purposes. For example, copy them to a database in Fritz by ChessBase.

Very Satisified

I've been interested in DGT board for some time, but couldn't justify the price. I recently purchased the DGT smartboard, and I'm very happy with it. I bought the version without pieces because I didn't like the look of the plastic pieces. I paired it with the DGT classic wood pieces. They are the perfect size for the smartboard, and look great. The board itself is plastic, but has a wood grain appearance. It looks great with the wood pieces.

I already had Fritz 15 so I didn't use the Fritz 14 that came with the board. Connecting it to Fritz was straight forward and works great. This essentially gives you a chess computer with the ability to use any engine compatible with Fritz. I've also successfully connected it with Lichess to play online games and that works great too. I tried connecting with chess.com, and it loses connection with the board after several moves. This is an issue with chess.com and not the DGT board.

Overall very happy with this purchase and would recommend getting this board.

Good personal Asistant! Gread shipping experiencia,

Excellent DGT Board

I own the older Bluetooth version but this one is lighter and more responsive. The finish honesty looks very aesthetically pleasing and has a 'wood' finish-appearance.
As usual great support from the Chesshouse Staff.

A nice alternative to the wooden board

I bought the DGT Smartboard for a friend of mine and he and his sons absolutely love it! They've played multiple games on it and it simply amazing. If you're on a budget, or if you just don't want to spend the money for a wooden board then the Smartboard is a great alternative. The quality is simply spectacular. It's a plastic board that feels like wood. And as a bonus, *all* the DGT-enabled chess pieces can be used with it. And of course, the service from chess house was topnotch.

Can i use this board with standart chess board pieces ? (What u mean with 'compatible DGT pieces' ? ) Can i use this board to translate my moves to the computer with Winboard GUI or Fritz , i mean to play online using computer connected with this DGT board, without buy any special accesories ?

Chess House

Hi Florov,

The board requires special pieces that have components in them that help the board identify the piece, so it requires DGT pieces to correctly function. You can use this board to translate moves to the computer using Fritz without buying any other special accessories. I haven't researched whether it will still interface with Winboard, but I know it did in the past.

I already own a DGT USB board bought from you several years ago but somehow some of the pieces are sometimes erratically disappearing tried calibrating it but still the same . Is this board and chess pieces which is much cheaper still compatible with the old one. Im staying here in the Philippines and there is no available repair shop

Chess House

Elmer, yes, the pieces that come with the Smart Board will be compatible with the board you currently have.
