In Week 27 of 2016, we received 3332 benchmark results from 887 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 37% 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 Alex@ro and PKBO's turn to join the infamous 742-club. In the 100+ point category, excluding the XTU 2xCPU results, we find Nacho_arroyo from Argentina topping the Elite class scoring 181.5 points for his World Record in Unigine Heaven Xtrem with a pair of GeForce GTX 980 Ti graphics cards and an unreal Core i7 6700K Skylake at 6.5 GHz. Strong Island from the USA tops the Extreme class just like last week, this time scoring 109.7 points in the 2xCPU Wprime 1024M category. With the Core i3 6100 at 6475 MHz, he scores more points than the dollar-value of his CPU!

In the Hardware rankings bracket, we find Xtreme Addict from Poland and Antome from Italy scoring gold in their respective categories. Xtreme Addict turned the HWBOT Prime Core i7 4700K upside down by nailing the top score, whereas Antome continues his 3D benching streak from last week topping the Aquamark3 Radeon HD 5870 category. Congratulations to everyone making the table this week!

The overclocking results submitted during Week 27 generated in total 200 World Record Points, 5551.8 Global Points, and 6425.6 Hardware Points. The distribution per League is as follows: 19% for Elite, 33% for Extreme, 10% for Apprentice, 20% for Enthusiast, 7% for Novice, and 21% for Rookie. The representation of the active community is as follows: 2% Elite, 9% Extreme, 3% Apprentice, 15% Enthusiast, 13% Novice, and 58% Rookie.
