In Week 13 of 2017, we received 4316 benchmark results from 1045 registered overclockers around the world. The majority of the submissions is coming from Rookie overclockers representing 59% of the active community. They were responsible for 41% of the submissions. We had a peek at the most valuable submissions in a breakdown per league.

During Week 13 of this year we have a total of 5 overclockers with a golden cup. First in line is Alex@ro from Romania with a Global First Place in the XTU 4xCPU benchmark. He scored 2338 marks with an Intel Core i7 7700K processor overclocked to 6760 MHz. Next up is K|ngp|n from the United States. He broke the World Record for 3DMark Fire Strike using 4 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 TI graphics cards in SLI. The cards are clocked at 2.4 GHz on the core and combined with a Core i7 6950X overclocked to 5227 MHz. Next up we have another World Record, this time from Futto-kun from Japan. Futto-kun-san took down Dancop's Kaby Lake launch record with a liquid nitrogen cooled Core i7 7700K clocked at 7130 MHz. The strong CPU is paired with a set of DDR4-4209 C12-11-11-28 memory and a Maximus IX Apex motherboard. Then we have a new highest memory frequency set by Audigy from Thailand. He managed to climb up to DDR4-5280 with a stick of TeamGroup T-Force memory and an ASRock Z170M OC Formula motherboard. Last but not least we have Matty90 from Italy scoring a Global First Place in the Wprime 1024M 44xCPU category. He achieved this feat with a pair of Xeon E5 2699 v4 processors clocked at 2796 MHz. Congratulations to everyone making the leaderboard!
