Happy New Year all!

I'm a 15 year AMD user. I still have a desktop that I use with a 6 core Phenom CPU in it and it still comparable to new CPUs from the other guys......... you know. 

I was using CPUs from other companies, but I was totally converted when I bought the Phenom. Next CPU..... will not go with anything other than AMD.

I have been playing some Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5! Loving it but my old quad core cpu is not quite cutting it any more.

[NoodleGod]

Big want

[zurca]

Nice!

I love the 5000 series processors and the 6000 series gpu. I am playing call of duty warzone regularly with them, and the hardware is keeping up with the competition. Curious to see what is going to be the next hardware releases.

[ripcord]

My daily driver (PC) choice is 100% AMD, all the way. Been using AMD products since the early 2000s and never looked back. Always been very happy with price and performance of all AMD from graphics cards to processors I have owned in the past.

[ripcord]

I also forgot to mention that I would love to win the AMD Ryzen™ 9 3900XT processor, what a powerful CPU, currently I have an AMD Ryzen™ 5 2600x and an AMD RX 580 Graphics card. That would be a big step-up for me.

[jaradmf]

Talk about upgrading, went from a HP I5 to a RYZEN 7 , still deciding on a GPU

[dcslatter]

How do I find my Ranking??

[theGrubbworm]

Hi! everyone,Tomb Raider, love this game

[thevig]

• Hello,

I've built 5 PCs using AM4 products for my family over last few years.  Really enjoy longevity on AM4 and ability to upgrade while keeping kids' gaming PCs up to requirements of current games.

[levelred]

I should have bought the 3900x instead of the 3600x when I build mine. But hey, now I might win it. 

[RGBMF]

WANT THIS! 

[jaradmf]

I’m in just finished my first build, have a question. Used a Ruben 7 5700G processor, should have gone higher but not bad for the first time I guess. What graphics card would you suggest for this build. I be been looking at a 6600, good or would a 6700 be the way to go. Having a mental conflict lol.

[sheighton]

Hey, quick question for you all, considering my new build is only looking for some cable combs, does anyone know if some place sells bridged 24+8(EPS)-pin aluminum rake combs in black? Clockwerk Industries doesn't seem to have that as an option, yet...

[petsnake]

I love my 5600x - best gaming cpu from team Red!

[Melfurian]

Hi all,

 I’ve been building all my PCs with AMD CPUs for the last two decades. After getting my first K6 in a prebuilt from HP I’ve been team red since.

[spacini79]

I'm seein Red!

[Andynonymous]

I've been playing a lot of Kerbal Space Program on my 6800xt. Maybe the hardest game I've ever played haha!

[dcslatter]

Is there a place that explains the Ranking system? What ranks are there? How to earn them?

[AceConrad]

I'd like to know this too!

[gfrail65]

I am currently run a Ryzen 5 2600 which has and continues to serve me well but it would be nice to upgrade.

[jesse519peterson]

I'm very excited about RSR it's nice that it will boost performance on ALL GAMES, way to go AMD!!!!!

[ecgonza]

Loved to win this processor.  Currently playing Diablo 3 and 2 resurection.

[UnclePickle]

I always loved the All in Wonder devices. My almost 20yo 9800 AIW is still going strong!

[Lazareth]

This is great! I upgraded my 2600 to a 5600X (thank you AMD for sticking with AM4 this long!), so I don't actually need it. My friend, however, is still rocking his 2600. If I win I'm going to surprise him with it! A drop-in upgrade!

[jd63636]

Thanks AMD

[heejaepark]

I am using ryzen 5800x CPU with radeon RX6900xt GPU for my gaming PC!

[dryden]

Hello everyone!

I really like the 3600. It's just the right balance of price and performance for many gamers. I hope AMD doesn't abandon the sub-$200-250 CPU market in the near future. I'm currently playing Division 2. Thanks AMD! Good luck everyone!

[Zabran]

Hi!

[kaz727]

Loyal AMD user. I have been building my own desktop computers for almost 20 years and refuse to use anything other than Amd or own a laptop if it has a intel chip in it. It made my day when the game consoles went to Amd. I'm team Amd all the way.

[Zolex]

I love these initiatives! It helps to breathe life into this forum :).

As for me. My very first purchase was an AMD duron 1Ghz.
Since then I've had every generation of AMD outside of the FX series.
So glad Ryzen and RDNA is here! love you guys!

[terminalgain]

I'm not playing any game seriously right now, so I am waiting on whatever good comes out in the meantime.

[iamjj]

Hi!

[Reanu_Keeves]

Woo!

[thealwaysgreenPNW]

All i want for 2022 is a MSRP 6800 XT, or whatever comes next.  So in the meantime consider Bios patching to nuke bit mining on select Radeon cards so people can buy them again for there intended purpose.

Happy New Year and thank you for bringing back the monthly giveaway!
