Last week we received 4161 benchmark results from 871 registered overclockers around the world. The majority of the submissions is coming from Rookie overclockers representing 57% of the active community. They were responsible for 40% 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.

The most valuable submission of the week comes from $@39@ (Greece) who (just like Bullshooter last week) joins the elusive list of people hitting the XTU 2xCPU 742 points mark. In the Elite category we find Splave topping the tables with a Global First Place in the Unigine Heaven Xtreme 1x GPU ranking with a GeForce GTX 980 Ti. In the weeks leading up to Computex and alleged AMD Polaris, Nvidia Pascal and Intel Broadwell-E product launches, overclockers are slowing down. Rhe rest of the table features solid but definitely not earth-shattering XTU submissions from Sandalo (Italy) as Apprentice, Raules009 (Peru) as Enthusiast, Hellraiz (France) as Novice and Neotitancomputer (United Stats) as Rookie.

A special shout out goes to Leeghoofd from Belgium and Rasparthe from Canada for being the top of their class in the Hardware rankings this week!

The overclocking results submitted during Week 16 generated in total 170 World Record Points, 5484.8 Global Points, and 7485.2 Hardware Points. The distribution per League is as follows: 14% for Elite, 39% for Extreme, 7% for Apprentice, 19% for Enthusiast, 7% for Novice, and 21% for Rookie. The representation of the active community is as follows: 3% Elite, 8% Extreme, 4% Apprentice, 17% Enthusiast, 11% Novice, and 57% Rookie.
