What about giving us team members a hwbot.org tag similar to F@H ones.

And as much as I'd like to be a part of this..

It seems that most of the software to bench unfortunately does not run on XP 64 :(

You will only receive points if your scores / overclock is high enough.

Because the average oc is 4533MHz. Average.

hwbot.org - Core 2 E8400 (3.0Ghz) specifications and performance analysis.

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. :)

Hmmmm, it seems that my stickied thread is no longer stuck, and has disappeared off the face of the Earth.
