From time to time things on a particular machine get a bit out of step. You have to remember that part of the way that points are awarded has to do with the figures generated by the benchmarking.

These are used by a machine to calculate points claimed. Some projects give points claimed rather than the more normal average between the machines that validated the WU.

Apart from me choosing which project to run on my 2600K @ 4.7 I have not used any other tricks but if it is in the chart today you will see it is claiming very high these past few weeks. I am not complaining because my windows 3770K does the opposite (to a lesser degree).

Remember too that points on a particular day may include a bunch that move from being pending to validated but were completed on previous days
