In Week 26 of 2016, we received 3201 benchmark results from 914 registered overclockers around the world. The majority of the submissions is coming from Rookie overclockers representing 61% of the active community. They were responsible for 46% of the submissions. We had a peek at the most valuable submissions in a breakdown per league.

To accommodate more results we simplified the overview table to contain three types of information. The Most Valuable Submission, based on WR + Global + Hardware points, is separated in a CPU and GPU benchmark section. The top hardware points remain the same, but are not included in one table. In terms of scoring points, this week it's Nacho_arroyo and Hilderman's turn to join the infamous 742-club. In the 100+ point category, excluding the XTU 2xCPU results, we find Xtreme Addict from Poland topping the Elite class scoring 115.8 points for his Global First Place in Unigine Heaven Xtreme 1xGPU with a GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card .

In the Hardware rankings bracket, we find Pulse88 from Sweden and Antome from Italy score gold in their respective categories. Both score gold in a 3D benchmark, respectively 3DMark06 with a Radeon HD 6950 and GPUPI 1B with the GeForce GTX 970. Also in the hardware bracket we find _12_ scoring a bronze cup this week. Congratulations to everyone making the table this week!

The overclocking results submitted during Week 26 generated in total 70 World Record Points, 6010.5 Global Points, and 6478.7 Hardware Points. The distribution per League is as follows: 22% for Elite, 30% for Extreme, 7% for Apprentice, 18% for Enthusiast, 5% for Novice, and 25% for Rookie. The representation of the active community is as follows: 2% Elite, 8% Extreme, 3% Apprentice, 15% Enthusiast, 11% Novice, and 61% Rookie.
