This is my reply: I was a user of team blue for many years.... we know who they are. Three years ago I took a leap of faith and bought my first AMD CPU, a Ryzen 7 1700x.  Lets say I was not disappointed, and the dollar to performance for what I got in return was humbling. I have fonder eyes for team red.

[Ayato_Zechs]

Love my all AMD system! Been playing Gears 5, Forza Horizon 5 and Horizon Zero Dawn. The 3900xt would be an awesome upgrade for my nephew's rig I built him 2 years ago!

[h2323]

Currently I'm running a 3700X, before that a 1800X, before that a FX8350. Today I am also running a 6700XT, before that 5700XT, before that a Vega 56 and before that a 390X. I enjoy upgrading parts and selling the used ones for a reasonable cost, just fun. Thank You!

[Tyrrano]

New to the site, but I'll try and boost my 'rank.'  Gotta say, I've been a fan of AMD since the Athlon days.  First PC I built was an AMD Athlon II chip.  Been building ever since.

[despairing7702]

worth a shot

[COLGeek]

Been an AMD user since using the venerable 386DX-40, back in the day. Rocking along with my Ryzen 9 5950X game rig now. Looking forward to securing a Radeon RX 6900 XT when prices come back down to Earth.

[pcmr69420]

hoping to upgrade from a 3200g to a 3800x

[wiredawg100]

Awesome AMD prize for some lucky person here...good luck all!!!!

[Razyr]

Hello, I appreciate the opportunity and I absolutely love AMD products. I play Halo infinite competitively, and I would love this upgrade! 

[semaphoreslim]

OK, coolness. Hello AMD folks.

I'll take time out from building EPYC-based servers to reply to this thread.

[big fan of those Supermicro EPYC boards. So are my customers]🤓

Haven't done a build-out on a Ryzen 9 machine yet. Sounds like fun, and if I win, a great excuse to do a test build. I have several customers who are avid PC gamers but who don't want to take the time to build-out their own rigs, so they pay me to do it.

Good gig if you can get it.

Anywhoo, would be a fun thing to do and I'm sure I could find a buyer.

Cheers, all.

Hitting the reply is easier than making a PBJ!

[hotwheeler69]

thanks

[felixlucid]

Every since I got my hands on a Vega 64 a few years ago, I knew the days of having just one gfx card manufacturer to rely on were over. Thanks for changing the game :direct_hit:

[TopAssassin26]

I'm currently playing halo infinite and demolishing the competition. just kidding 🙂 thanks for providing us a way to upgrade our PC free of charge.

[Travmanman]

Thanks for the giveaway!

[jorgitog1]

[decembersend]

[samsbrown]

[Jfraley]

Everyone doing good?

[maxattaxam]

Hi,

Good luck to everyone participating!

[Salmanansari]

I want to free gift.

[TSTsankov]

Build my PC first PC with a Ryzen 7 3700, to train cs1.6 surf bots, using Unity & reinforcement learning, and loved pushing the processor to its limits ❤️

[pyr02k1]

I could definitely use a new processor. Bunch of old AMD, Intel i5, i7 and a couple of Xeons floating in there, but nothing Ryzen or even in that timeframe since the 1xxx series came out

[furrepanther]

I am so impressed with AMD processors!!!  My current rig is a mini-PC sporting a Ryzen 9 4900H and I couldn't be happier.

[SAMSAMHA]

Happy 2022!

Nice upgrade to my aging system if I am ever so lucky

[archtsean]

Recently I've been playing a lot of Madden and CS:GO because it makes me nostalgic for when I was in college and CS rules the world.

[blazer]

Kool.

[tredeuce]

Ryzen products are my favorite, and the game I am playing the most is Elder Scrolls Online.

[MentalOctopus]

Hello! I would love to win the AMD Ryzen™ 9 3900XT Processor as I have been playing Battlefield 2042 lately and also use my computer for work in photo and video editing.  Thank you!  Team Red sine Athlon was the big thing!

[FeralGangrel]

    Only recently found out about the give aways. Won't get it due to just starting an account. But hey, I'll just tryhlater on. would be a kicken upgrade over my 1600 though.   

[Afjal]

I like AMD products though I never used that before. I would like to build a PC with an AMD processor and graphics card in future. 

[DeadalusE641]

Currently running a Ryzen 5 1600 on a MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus MB with 48 GB RAM.  A  Ryzen 9 3900XT processor would be a sweet upgrade!

[Katitude]

More cores less wait on video processing, that would be sweet. 🤗

[brian2090]

Hoping that luck brings me the 3900XT processor upgrade... Ryzen 5 1600 is getting outdated sadly.

[scorpion]

Hi, my favourite product is the RX5700 XTI

t's been great for me, no issues!

Currently, I am playing Forza (PC), Apex (PC), Civ 6 (PC), Yu Gi Oh (PC/PS5), NBA2K20 (PS5), and Battlefield 2042 (PS5).

[dnehiba3]

What’s the best motherboard for this chip?

[kkane510]

In my last build I used an AMD processor for the first time.  I love it!  Performance to price cannot be beat!

[CrazyBeard]

Thank you for another giveaway!

[KillyMcFletch]

Loving Valhiem these days. Also outriders since the fixed it with the patch!
