fugger can always set...the rules...10guys only 5.5ghz 12threads are acceptable results.....set the bar high if you want to compete... multithreaded application of your choice... lets see who can tweak their system stable at that... of course..hardware must all be identical.

again rules matter how a competition will go...either extreme difficult comps, marketting stuff for manufacturers...skill events.... many ways to promote overclocking and manufacturer hardware...
