The point is HWBOT is a metering tool for extreme overclocking and benchmarking. It's a sport unto itself and you have to beat the norm to score. It's a good place to look at too just to see if your rig is performing par or sub par compared to others.

You need more than an average oc to have points: you need to have an oc higher than 4861MHz for 0.2 point.

hwbot.org - Top Results.

Heh, no one said it is easy. Run some wprime, you can usually pick up points fairly easily with that bench. :)

Exactly! hahah we should get points for everything!

Seems that site is a site for bragging rights... I'm honestly quite disappointed I didn't get any points.

Make sure you put the CPU/GPU in your submissions properly. Start to type the CPU/GPU and a drop down menu will appear. Then select it from that otherwise it wont work. I saw your submissions say unknown CPU and such.

If you did it right my bad, just trying to help. :)

hmm. Unless you have some older hardware, or some less used hardware, I see no point in trying to compete. Look at most (if not all) top 20s: all are cooled either by LN2, dice, SS, cascades.

Sorry guys, I'm out.

Once logged in, go to "options", then "signature" and you'll find two different links. Put one of them in your signature on the forums and it will appear.

I'm 700th and didn't get any points.
