The first stage of the contest is all about cranking up the VGA performance of your Pascal 1080 Ti card to score as highly as possible in the 3DMark Time Spy benchmark. At the top of the table with ten days to go we find OGS (Greece) leading the way with a score of 11,758 marks. This was made with the HoF OC Lab Edition card pushed to a pretty amazing 2,570MHz on the GPU (+73.65%) and 1,570MHz (+14.10%) on graphics memory. In CPU terms his Core i7 7700K is also getting quite a workout, being pushed to a decent 6GHz (+42.86%).
