AMD Red Team Dirty Keyboard Contest

2848070_Promotional_Banners_for_Keyboard_Contest_1920x600.jpg

 

Red Team!

 

Are you using a keyboard that has seen better days and is in dire need of an upgrade? Now’s your chance to enter our Dirty Keyboard Contest!

To shake things up a bit – like you may shake the dust and scraps out of your keyboard on a weekly basis – we’re asking you to share a picture of your keyboard setup over in PC Building from now until 9/2/24 at 12 PM CST. UPDATE: We're extending the contest to 9/3/24 at 12 PM CST! (Thanks, Labor Day!)

 

How it works:

  1. Snap a photo of your keyboard.
  2. Create a post in PC Building with the title: “Dirty Keyboard Entry: (Name of your keyboard)”.
  3. Add the photo to the body of your post – you can also add any details or comments about your keyboard if you’d like.
  4. Add the label “Keyboard Contest Entry” to the post before publishing.

You, the community, will choose the top 3! We’re looking to help those who could use an upgrade, so be sure to vote (by likes) for the ugliest keyboards in need of a facelift!

The top 3 liked posts will move onto the judgment round. This is where the AMD Community Management team will step in and vote for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners.

 

What’s up for grabs:

1st Place

2nd Place                                                                                                           

3rd Place

Winners will be announced on 9/3, so keep an eye out for the update. Good luck, everyone, and show us what you’re working with!

 

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. Sponsor: AMD, Inc., 2485 Augustine Drive, Santa Clara, CA 95054. Contest is open to legal residents of the 50 United States (D.C.) and Canada, 18 years or older. Contest begins at 12:00 PM CT on 8/26/2024 and ends at 12:00 PM CT on 9/3/2024. View the Official Rules and Terms, including prize descriptions and judging criteria.  Void where prohibited.

Oh jeebus... NOW you do this contest? I tossed out my old Devastator last year. That thing was NASTY.

Tabernac, Wally... Next time warn a guy! 🤣

Performance over Pretty.

You could always throw a bunch of cheeto dust on your current keyboard for a shot... 🤣 (jk, don't do that!)

I'm throwing the same gauntlet down at you for such audacity!

Performance over Pretty.

Wally... I really, REALLY want to get violent on you for that suggestion. I hereby challenge you to a duel. 

1 v 1 in a custom match on The Finals. We'll stream it from each end to keep it fair.

Performance over Pretty.

I guess audacity has a price.


As Albert Einstein said, "I could have done so much more with a Big Al's Computer!".

It certainly does! 😄

Performance over Pretty.
