How to Submit an Entry:

To earn one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes (“Entry”), eligible Participant(s) must:

1. Must be registered with the AMD Community forum with a ranking of Novice III or greater.
2. Have an eligible AMD Community forum account. 
3. Answer/reply to the question(s) posted in the corresponding discussion.

Failure to include the required information will void the Entry. Any other language or information included by a Participant is deemed to be part of the Entry, and the Participant gives Sponsor, its designees, successors, assigns, and licensees a royalty-free, irrevocable, non-exclusive worldwide license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, create derivative works from, and display the Entry and all elements embodied therein, along with the Participant’s name, in any manner, in whole or in part, on a worldwide basis, and to incorporate it into other works, in any form, media or technology now known or later developed, including for advertising, promotional, marketing and other purposes, without further payment or consideration, notification or permission. If requested, Participant will sign any documentation required for Sponsor or its designees, successors, assignees, and licensees to make use of the non-exclusive rights Participant is granting to use the Entry. Released Parties (as defined below) are not responsible for lost, late, stolen, incomplete, inaccurate, invalid, unintelligible, garbled, delayed, or misdirected Entries, all of which will be void.

The Entry must comply with the following content guidelines (“Guidelines”). Entries that do not fully comply with these Guidelines shall be disqualified from the Sweepstakes:

1. The Entry may not contain material that violates or infringes another’s rights, including but not limited to privacy, publicity, or intellectual property rights, or that constitutes copyright or trademark infringement.
2. The Entry must not in any way disparage Sponsor, any of its products or services, the Sweepstakes, or any person or party affiliated with the Sweepstakes, or appear to promote any direct competitor of Sponsor;
3. The Entry may not contain text or imagery that is inappropriate, indecent, obscene, hateful, tortious, defamatory, slanderous, or libelous (as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion);
4. The Entry must not include threats (expressed or implied) to any person, place, business, or group;
5. The Entry must not invade privacy rights or any other rights of any person, business, or group, and the Entry must not name or depict any third party without his/her permission;

7. The Entry must not contain unlawful material, in violation of, or contrary to the laws or regulations in any jurisdiction where the Entry is created.

For All Entries: Limit one (1) Entry per person, per account handle, per household, per Entry Period. Any Entries that do not comply with the above Guidelines will not be eligible to win a prize. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any Entry, the Authorized Account Holder of the email address used to register for the Participant’s AMD Community platform account will be deemed to be the Participant. The “Authorized Account Holder” is the natural person assigned the email address used to register for the AMD Community account, as that is determined by the internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. The potential winner may be required to show proof of being the Authorized Account Holder. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, illegible, or misdirected Entries, which may be disqualified, or for any error, human, technical, or otherwise.

1. Winner Selection: The Sponsor will randomly select one (1) potential winner, per Drawing Entry Period, from all eligible Entries received during the Entry Period, for a total of twelve (12) potential winners. The odds of winning depend upon the number of eligible Entries received.

1. Prize Notification and Delivery: The winner will be contacted via email and the private messenger tool of the AMD Community Forum platform. Such notification will be delivered in English. Within (72) seventy-two hours of the Sponsor’s notification, the winner must supply any requested information for the administration of the Contest in English. Potential winners are subject to verification, including verification of age. If a potential winner of any prize cannot be contacted, fails to comply with these Official Rules, fails to respond to the notification within the required period, fails to provide the requested information, or the prize or notification is returned as undeliverable, or is determined by the Sponsor to be otherwise ineligible, he/she forfeits the applicable prize. If a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, including ineligibility or forfeiture, the Sponsor reserves the right to award the prize to a potential substitute winner and each such potential substitute winner will also be subject to the prize notification and delivery requirements outlined in this paragraph. Sponsor is not responsible for any change of e-mail address, mailing address, and/or other contact information of Participant. The prize will be shipped to each winner within thirty (30) days of the winner's announcement, upon completion of the Contest. Shipping costs and customs fees, if any, will be borne by Sponsor. Potential winner(s) may waive their right to receive a prize. Allow 30-60 days for prize delivery. The prize delivery mailing address must not be a P.O. Box. Sponsor will not ship to P.O. Boxes.
