Last week we received 4926 benchmark results from 802 registered overclockers around the world. The majority of the submissions is coming from Rookie overclockers representing 54% of the active community. They were responsible for 27% of the submissions. We had a peek at the most valuable submissions in a breakdown per league.

The Most Valuable Submission is calculated by the sum of a submissions's World Record, Global, and Hardware points. The Top Hardware Points is taking into account only the Hardware Points of a submission.

As you can see in the table below, the most valuable submission of the week was the Global First Place of SHIMIZU in XTU 4xCPU using the Core i7 6700K Skylake. The XTU 4XCPU category has been very competitive over the past months as newer Skylake processors are able to be clocked higher and higher. In the Enthusiast category, just like last week, we find Noliso from Germany continuing his XTU . The dual core Skylake is remarkably competitive in the XTU 2xCPU rankings and even water cooled systems can make it onto the podixCPU action from last week. This week, the Global First Place of Rauf in the XTU 2xCPU pushes him to the top of the leaderboard. Note that Rauf is still using plain ambient cooling for his Global First Place! In the Novice category we find a second Japanese flag by the efforts of Keika and Rookie SergeyR represents Ukraine.

The overclocking results submitted during Week 44 generated in total 420 World Record Points, 8969.5 Global Points, and 8239.8 Hardware Points. The distribution per League is as follows: 30% for Elite, 35% for Extreme, 12% for Enthusiast, 7% for Novice, and 16% for Rookie. The representation of the active community is as follows: 4% Elite, 13% Extreme, 15% Enthusiast, 14% Novice, and 54% Rookie.
