Yah there are demos on hwbot about how you do everything, ie:

hwbot.org - 'Howto submit a result.'

Where do you compare all of the scores for a particular GPU? Looks like my 8800GTS 512MB will earn me the highest memory overclock. :D I will be concentrating on that one tonight methinks....

Navigation window top left, Hardware Specs, Videocards, then find yours. It will show a graph of oc results and the top scores for each bench.

The card you speak of is here: hwbot.org - GeForce 8800 GTS 512 Mb specifications and performance analysis.

But for more popular cards like that you are going to need cherry hardware, vmods, CPU/GPU pots, and LN2 to take out any WRs. However you can still get plenty of points just getting the best score you can. :)

Well, I joined. I'm not sure if I'll start benchmarking anytime soon though. My computer isn't very great either.

hahaha I'm don't have the funds to even thinking about LN2 or DI cooling haha.

Heck I priced out a watercooling system to play around with and it alone was gonna be $300 hah which is enough to fix the brakes on my truck.

The trick to get points is to OC the crap out of your hardware and run the most unlikely benchmarks there are....the fewer scores there are of something....the higher your points will get....!!
