Hello, I've been rocking with AMD product's for decades, long before they became popular. I'm looking forward to the next GPU releases, and am in awe of the progress the CPU's have made! Seriously though, all there competition seem to be in trouble! LMAO! I see the competition is only open to US and Canada, 😢 @Ashley_AMD . I'm looking forward to a world wide AMD promo-competition! Team Red for ever! Good luck everyone!

When I was buying my First gaming Rig choosing my first prosses was a big step for me and I was still new to the world of building a PC and ultimately decided to go with Alienware(unfortunately). But when choosing the processor I probably spent a total of 4+ hours watching diff vids on the diff between AMD and Intel and Nvida. and Ultimately for the price and what I wanted from my PC I went with AMD and have only regretted  getting the 7 instead of the 9  Otherwise I'm absolutely happy

[aroryborealis]

Always enjoy a chance to get a killer processor.  I have built Red systems exclusively and will likely continue to.  Rocking a nice little 3600 now that I bumped up from a 2600x (thanks for longevity!).  I recently also built a 1600AF. 

[Cymen]

I think my favorite product is the 5950x. Amazing CPU that can be used at home with regular motherboards.

[Kakudiego]

Come to me 🤣

I would love to win this.

Happy New Year

[Maritimer]

I could certainly use an upgrade for my i7 4790K...lol

[Duke1]

Huge fan of the AMD  product lines.

I got back into PC building in 2018. Just in time for for the 2000 series CPU/APUs.

I've built 8 PCs (not all for me) in that time and 7 of them have been AMD builds, mainly because of the price to performance comparisons done before each build.

Go team Red.

Well I already play the Thursday sweepstakes and I lose every time, every Thursday because AMD store cannot seem to verify the difference between bots and people. Hint: you should have to register with something unique like a driver's license number that gets verified.

So what the hell, let me try and win this old Ryzen 2 WITHOUT COOLER BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY WE NEED TO SELL THE WRAITH PRISMS IN THE STORE!!!

[wheelzup]

Currently I've been playing two games, Halo, and Diablo 3. Waiting for the new Rebellion game Sniper 5. I wish I could afford to get a new GPU to replace a pair of 390's running in Crossfire mode.

[louiem]

Been currently playing through Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and still playing Red Dead Redemption 2.  Both have been pretty relaxing games.  A 3900XT would be a pretty massive upgrade to the heavily multi-threaded stuff I do like Photoshop painting and Game Art.

[aroryborealis]

3900x would be a great improvement for most!

[complxpr]

Hello team AMD 

I seen how the team cares about the gaming community and i love how you talk about the issues some cards can have while gaming and y'all quickly fix it the issue and give details how it was fix  this has made me really loyal to this team keep the great work.

[AMDUsername73]

Been building AMD PCs for many years and their quality is always top notch!!

[Lagwagon]

I been running AMD since the 90s and have been been using them for most of my computer needs since then from the K6-2, Athalon MP, Athalon 4200 x2, Ryzen 3900x and 5900. I am so happy that are competitive again just wish i could get a VID card to round my system out in Team Red. 

[stevecapell]

Fantastic opportunity to win the best! Thanks so much~! 

[fireraven]

Happy New Year & Game On Everyone!

[dougkl]

I am in!

[therdrinkinggeek]

I would love this boost in power so I could invest in a newer MOBO. Mine is definitely getting long in the tooth in terms of support.

[TMJ82]

🙂

[noobslammed82]

I wouldn't mind getting that cpu to upgrade my 2600x

[maxius]

Hi. This is a trap isn't it🤔

[dbbreaker]

Happy New Year to everyone 2022!

Let's do this!

[Gil_Graham]

YES

[ExpendableTango]

I just got a new AIO cooler for a 2700X, have a new CPU to put under it would be great!

[JamesOster]

We have several AMD powered computers; Two 2400g's, two 3700x's. Two 5700g's. a 3950 liquid cooled system with a 6800xt tuf gaming gpu, and a few others. We are huge AMD fans and love the new products..

[Acewingman]

I've been an Amd cpu fan since the early 90's. Although I've never used a gpu from AMD.

[thow09]

I have the 6800xt in my rig. I have been digging it ever since I've put it in. 

[Miky2134]

I love amd did my first build recently with a 2600 and 5700xt 

[Legend15]

hope I win this way better than intel

[btebeau]

Currently have a 3900x.  Excited as to what this year will bring in new CPUs!

[lorddarkhelmet]

Very cool giveaway , I hope we get those VLans this year , really miss , meeting with the streamers and playing games with them .

[JOKERSKACORE]

AMD are the best for gaming 👌 

[blackvan7845]

RYZZEN IS MY FAV PRODUCT.

AM A NEWBIE. MY RIGS ARE ANCIENT BUT WILL UPGRADE IN 2022

[aCyborg]

I've been playing Horizon Zero Dawn lately, it's pretty fun but at times there are points where it feels empty or repetitive 

[Pugnacious]

Woo!  Sweepstakes!

[andersondiaz]

I love Amd, 6900xt solid Rock

[jraloff]

Thanks for the sweepstakes!

[Neldrake01]

This would be a nice upgrade to my rig.

[bobpi]

I always use and recommend AMD CPUs and AMD graphics due to the superior design (mainly shorter logic pipelines which mostly outperform higher speeds someone else makes by increasing logic pipelines).

However, I am stuck right now with FX processors running Windows 7 because I do not like Windows 10 or 11. But I do use somewhat newer RX 5500XT and RX 580 video cards (Newer than that is too expensive right now.). I do not see Linux as a viable alternative for me right now. I do know Unix from my mainframe days so I understand it.

I mainly play Java Minecraft as far as games (But occasionally try other games.). I also watch a lot of anime because my systems are Home Theaters also.

If I win I will have to think about some upgrading though and beating Windows 11 into submission especially when it comes to security and privacy (And also stop it from sending data to Microsoft because I have limited data on my satellite internet [I live in the middle of nowhere]).

[mkehhlt]

oh this would be nice upgrade.  I am AMD all the way CPUs and Video cards my red devil 5700XT card is awewsome would love to get a 6800 or 6900 card someday.
