As you may possibly know the first stop of the HWBOT World Tour is underway in Sao Paulo, Brazil. We thought we’d give you a quick update on the amateur qualification round that has been running in the last few days and the results of the final.

After four days of solid amateur overclocking the qualification winner was GriloSoldier who topped the table with a total of 2790 points thanks to a winning display benching XTU. Top spot was claimed with GriloSoldier hitting 279 Marks XTU using a Pentium G3258 pushed to 4.6GHz (+43%). He was joined by fellow Brazilians rafael, gabrielxpc and manololuigi – the four overclockers who then went to fight it out for supremacy in the Amateur Final on Friday.

Despite winning the qualification round GriloSoldier was unable to finish at the top in the Final with Rafael finishing top. GriloSoldier finished second with manololuigi in third and gabrielxpc arriving in fourth. Prizes for the top three include Platinum 750W Power Supplies from Seasonic and Z97M-D3H and Z97X-SLI motherboards from GIGABYTE.
