Hello, I love replying to posts in order to enter sweepstakes.

[WarHavoc]

I’ve been a longtime customer of AMD products dating all the way back to the year 2000! Thank you and Keep making great products!

[omalak]

Best AMD product I have is my 6800xt. Excellent mix of price and performance 🙂 

Good luck to everyone!

hi. amd

[sorianomac]

Hi. I'm loving the new BF2042 despite all the bugs and criticism. It's not perfect, and of course I'm hoping they fix the issues. I'm having an absolute blast especially after I got my new AMD Red Devil Ultimate 😃

[zhenga]

Currently running an r5 3600, getting an r9 3900xt will definitely help in rendering videos and production!

[Chimples]

Ohhhhh sweepstakes! Sign me up!

[limeay]

I love playing bf4, LOL, and Old School Runescape

[startrek133]

Hello AMD, 

Currently playing Satisfactory Early Access .. 

[gunbuster]

Good luck everyone! I'd love to get onto more than 4 cores.

[kingsooth]

This thing goes faster than my car. 🤘🤘

[xXHollowSpiritXx]

Tbh I play a decent amount of high demand games like Escape From Trakov and other face pace shooters and I would state the AMD is a very affordable way to get high speed gaming at a wonderful price I think I’m going to stike with AMD for the rest of my gaming career as it’s brought me nothing but smooth seamless gaming and connections with friends, whenever any of my friends or family say they’re thinking about building a PC I always mention AMD and a reliable and affordable platform for gaming!

[PolycountEr]

Love my 1700x

[stnz]

RX480

FX8320

Still going strong

[Craazyville]

I got me a 6800xt last year and my favorite part is running games on ultra and being satisfied with the results!

[DumpsterJ]

I been playing Battlefield 2042 and Halo Infinite !!! I built a K6-2 back in the day AMD got me started.

[Johnwhittle254]

Hell yeah, that's awesome!

[ediguy78]

Have always been an AMD user from the beginning. Just upgraded home set up from FX-9590 (Air cooled) with 32Gb 2133Mhz ram and 1Tb SSD with 2Tb HDD; in a SPEC-2 RED case. R9-280X graphics. To a Ryzen 7 3800XT, 64 Gb 3600 Mhz ram (2x32) MSI Phantom Gaming 4 B550, 4Tb NVME m.2 with 20Tb of RAID 5 HDD storage for the Plex server VM. And the (boo) nvidea RTX-3060 12Gb graphics card. This thing rocks. I'm ready for the Ryzen 9 5950X, or wait for 7000 series with DDR5 memory.

[TomTheGamer]

Good Luck to everyone entering the giveaway and thanks AMD for doing the giveaway.  Been playing Vanguard and Warzone a good bit.  Hoping to land a new CPU and GPU when they come in stock hopefully.

[mapdma]

Have 3 AMD systems now.

5600x + 5600xt on a Gigabyte x470 Ultra Gaming.

1800x on an MSI board with a rx580.

Dual core Athlon hooked up to a tv for watching videos. ( @35w ) 

Really like the low power consumption of the Ryzen lineup.  My 5600x/5600xt pc only draws @200-250 watts when gaming.

Even less if playing older games.

Btw, where are the ranking levels listed?  I know what mine is but is there a list somewhere?

This processor is literally one of if not the best processor that is compatible with my ASRock Fatal1ty x370 K4 motherboard. It'd be amazing to upgrade from my first gen Ryzen 7 1800x. It's like when I got the G1 mobile phone, it's always obvious when a first gen of new tech comes out and it's going to be boss. Makes it harder to upgrade, but this would align with me upgrading my gpu soon c:

[Ilaw896]

I have both an old process AMD FX 8350 processor now for almost 10 years still going strong.

I am running it on 32 GB RAM.  So far so good.

Love playing Valheim and even Project Zomboid.  I can't wait to afford upgrading.  But for now I am happy with what I have.

I am excited for Team Red's Ryzen series CPUs can't wait to build a new rig using these new cpus.

Thanks for allowing me to participate in this discussion. 🙂

[apstwitch]

Going from 4 Intel cores to 12 AMD cores would really make my day 🙂

[Troyduck]

This is cool, sweepstakes are back! A year ago I built my new computer and went completely team red. It has not dissapointed!

[Sfasubartonc]

Hi! Big AMD fan here, and avid total war player. Best of luck to everyone!

[therym]

Howdy! Nice to see monthly giveaways for AMD fans.

[Justkeevin]

Fingers crossed!

[Cyberburnout59]

Like my a Ryzen 3700x desktop but having a Ryzen 5700u in my notebook is pure love. 

[Chotch]

AMD is a powerhouse for processors. Glad you are getting the recognition you deserve!

[eggHDB]

This would be sweet. Love my Ryzen 5 3600 but an upgrade of this caliber would ensure I squeeze the most out of my 5700XT.

[barkingspace]

Clearly I need to rank up - but I have always been an AMD user (with a small exception for a few years due to a sale). Certainly learned my lesson!

[ksliving]

Cool it's nice to something happening here again!

[Absydion]

I’d love to win! 

[Lazagna]

Bring it!

[frm]

[Oxymoron281]

Hi.

Finally getting around to playing Fallout 4.

Giving those super mutants the old pew pew.

[carl4768]

Hi! I’ve had a lot of fun playing Jurassic World Evolution 2 recently. Currently playing through the campaigns and excited to start some of the challenges!

[deadstick]

I've always tried to use AMD graphics cards, since they have seemed to target a better bang for you buck model.
