nice to see this. currently I'm using a Ryzen 7 2700 with a Radeon RX 580. and it's so nice to have it in the same ecosystem for maintenance convivence.

Currently I'm playing Diablo 3, the new season (25) is great. Also, I reset my Red Dead Redemption 2 campaign the other day to do it all over again. (it's been at least 2 years since I played it last)

I've been buying AMD CPU's since my DX4-100 and GPU's since my Rage Fury Maxx.  AC Valhalla is taking up my time right now.  Thanks for the opportunity to win this CPU.

Hi! I'm currently running a R5 3600 and my son is running an R5 5600G and we have been playing Lego DC Super Villains lately and have 6 more missions to complete it and it will be my sons first completed game. Thanks for the opportunity! Stay Safe!

I'm looking forward to getting the 5800X3D but I'm running the Ryzen 3900X and Radeon 6900XT right now. Playing Red Dead 2 and lovin it.

Talk about starting off right!!  A chance to win a NICE CPU from AMD, catching up with the AMD community  & happenings, and knowing some lucky winner is going to be number crunching & game crushing  with that 3900XT makes a great start to the new year!!  

I have just completed (OK, its never actually done for a PC Junkie / tinkerer like myself 🙂 my new build on a Aorus X570S with a AMD 5900X and it is AMAZING!!  Not to sound like a commercial but it does power through heavy work FAST and keeps every game I play fluid, fast, and F U N!!  Love Precision Boost Optimizer 2 & the new options it brings.  Despite reading many posts about high temps mine  have been a LOT lower then I expected while hitting great clock speeds.  

A new complete build had been planned and unfortunately canceled over the years more times then I like to remember.  Like they say life happens and to me my family & friends come first above all. Now every time I start it up, or play a game, I think "WOW!"   That said I have a very, VERY large back list of games to catch up on.  A couple of the games I have really enjoyed "Catching up on" is Control, Metro Exodus, Halo Infinite, and Doom Eternal.  Wow!  Doom Eternal's speed, graphics, and play style really amazes me.  Reminds me of when I was equally amazed by the game on a 3.5 inch floppy from my local PC store which was the first DooM shareware/demo released.  

 

Happy New Year Everyone!!  Good luck to all, not just in this contest, but in all you do ALL YEAR LONG!!

Greetings fellows,

When it comes to my favorite AMD product, I will say it's the Ryzen 7 3700X. This is my first CPU that made my first ever computer build possible and still with me one year later keeping company during this journey!!! Really love AMD and their products and will always use their processors on every computer that I get to build.

Hello, 
the AMD product are really reliable, I’ve put my product through harsh over clocking but still works great and with that said I was doing it smart but still love the reliability of amd products

Sounds good but I can't find the rankings.. Is journeyman higher than novice? lol

I could not find the information on the different levels either.  Truth told I only spent a few moments looking though.

I would guess Journeyman is definitely higher.  If someone was providing a service for me "Don't worry, I am a Journeyman." sounds a lot more reassuring then "Don't worry, I am a novice."!

Have a great day!!

Been running an r5 2600 for while, but I'm willing to upgrade

I’ve been a loyal AMD user for over 2 decades with almost all of my builds using various generations of AMD processors starting from the 80386 era.  Thanks for AMD’s renovation through out these years and congratulations on the latest achievement with the Ryzen generations of processors!  Way to go AMD!

Thanks for holding these sweepstakes!

It sounds like 2022 will be an exciting year for all of us that love AMD's CPUs & GPUs!!

Love the competition - I have an RX570 with a 8 or so year old intel CPU - would love an upgrade, thanks for doing this!

I would love to see how well a 3900XT runs. I've been on a 3700X for a while and would love the extra 4 cores

My favorite amd products have to be the ryzen series and the rx 500 series specifically the rx 580 due to the power it has for the low price of 220 at the time.

I play all games from Fortnite to Warzone, Gta v, to Fivem, and Forza 5 to Need for speed heat, as well as doing coding and working with Pi and Arduino on the side.

My current hardware is:

AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0 GHz (4.2 GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W 

And

Sapphire Radeon NITRO+ RX 580 4GB GDDR5 PCI-E    

It's over 5 years old and pretty dated.

I could really use some new parts to start a new build.

I'm currently playing Battlefield 2042.  It struggles a little, but I am able to play the 64 player modes.  The 128 player modes are unplayable it stutters so bad.

Hey everyone! Been using only AMD desktop CPUs all the way back to the 386SX around 1991 (if memory serves). Currently running a Ryzen 1700X for the past 5 years.  A 3900X would be a nice upgrade indeed 😍 Thanks AMD for continuing to support the community!
