Simply put vcore to 1.375v and loadline calibration to middle (depends on your mb) as a start.
Based on experiments, evertyhing above 3.9ghz is bringing tons of heat...but i'll'try again with noctua c14s to see gains

Noctua C14S implied some progress (4.02Ghz OC max)...updated photos of completed Cerberus-X incoming soon..
Nice work @MarcParis !
Thanks for the tip and with 1.375. LLC2 and disabling core boost (was missing that earlier) I hit 1670cb at 3800Mhz. Does the team always get points with submissions or is it just the top 20 or? Basically if you getting better results on your 1700x should I bench other stuff for the team is my question.
fun stuff though!

Does the team always get points with submissions?
Yes, all submissions will earn additional points for the team
Higher scores for certain hardware will award more points when your submission is ranked among others but there is generally always some award, however big or small that may be.

Absolutely! The more submissions we have a team, the better we will do. You can even see where all these submissions made a terrific impact on our teams performance. (link)
It has bumped us up quite a bit on the team rankings too!
I've been overthrown! Huge congrats to everyone for the amazing contributions.
The nice thing, and this is very important, is that on this particular forum a good majority of the users are on certain hardware that functions best in SFF cases. In general, this leads to a lot of similar hardware being used/tested. Be it on DX-ATX, HD-Plex, or SFX PSU's, users that submit similar hardware can work with others members on the forums to undervolt or perhaps find greater forms of efficiency.
For example, let's say 20 SFF.net users are on an i7-7700k and someone says, "Hey, I undervolted to XX.Xvolts and achieved the same clockspeed for my submission but my temps dropped 8c" other users can then experiment with undervolting to increased their hardware's efficiency.
This also helps to find additional performance when your rig is somehow scoring comparatively lower than other people with similar hardware. "Hey, wait, why is your GTX1060 scoring 500 points higher than mine?"
It's great to watch a team naturally work together when simple competitions like this on are posted because it can help to make all of our machines better.

I too use a 2560x1440 display. I use irfanview (Freeware) to save all images at 1280x720 at a 60% compression level.
In my experience, this typically changes a 8MB screenshot to just 1.5MB.
It also helps that the tool has the ability to quickly batch entire libraries of images (I use this for our reviews).

You are right about small form factor...there is clear synergy between users..
As a today's feedback, i noted that you need to desactivate all monitoring (afterburner, cpu-z...) or programs (like steam, origin...)
For screenshot i'm simply using crop from windows. Even on 4k screen, i'm just taking a snapshot of benchmark..
Last point : testing all these benchmark helped me to identified stable oc. For example my oc was working on cinebench r15 (but my computer uses 250w on wall.....) but not on super pi...i needed to increase a little bit vcore..

Quantity over quality I'm afraid. ;-)
Good tips, but I think it won't work when you've got a *.hwbot validation file on your hands. It's a fringe-case but an annoying one. :-PFor screenshot i'm simply using crop from windows. Even on 4k screen, i'm just taking a snapshot of benchmark..
15th place for the Team!

It seems like we have the most efficient result with 19 members while the next one is 45. Dare I say, SFF efficient ?
Pfff, on competition i've just discovered that i was only one on top chart using windows 10...

Here are my humble Geekbench 4 scores on my 35w i7, but I do not know how to get the XTU profile on Linux: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/2939541
Nevertheless..I managed to reach proper results despite using Windows 10...Pfff, on competition i've just discovered that i was only one on top chart using windows 10...

For info, I guess they were using win xp..
