    I know it seems rather silly, but I think it's high time we Acer users strut our stuff and show how powerful our hardware really is.

    If you're an Acer overclocker (or even an Acer user with a discrete GPU), please visit HWbot, register an account, set "Team NBR" as your team, and start benchmarking!

    HWbot is a global ranking site for CPU and GPU benchmarks, specifically for overclocking results. You get awarded points based on how you rank against other machines with the same CPU or GPU.

    For example, I've currently submitted one result each for 3DMark2001 SE, 3DMark03, and 3DMark05, and sit 7th in each ranking for the GeForce 9500M GS. Each 7th place yields 0.4 points, which are contributed to my score and Team NBR's.

    I know there are users out here with even faster machines (DarkSilver, triturbo, classic77, gazzacbr, I'm looking at you guys), so I think we can claim even higher spots in the rankings and maybe get Team NBR into the top 100 teams.

    Note: You'll need to run each benchmark at its default resolution - which means unless you've got a monitor capable of handling 1280x1024, don't bother with 3DMark06 or 3DMark Vantage.

    What do ya say, lads?

    EDIT: Stickied for a day.
