I've got a 500$ HP workstation atm and my current gpu is the GeForce 640.

I am going to upgrade to an rx480 or a gtx1070, when I can finally get one under $500, if that ever even happens :D

I am too young to get a summer job, so I have been doing everything I can to get some money for a new graphics card. If I win this I'm getting a new cpu/mobo instead.

I'm using a Gtx970 that is good for 1080p 60Hz but not for higher frequencies. I want to upgrade to a 120Hz, perhaps even a 144Hz monitor but games won't run smooth on my current gpu. Looking into the future I may get some VR experience (if it gets affordable and better).

Currently using Titan X in my main rig. My "less-frequently-used" rig still uses Radeon HD7870, and I plan to upgrade it in a month or so, and I'm considering a RX 480. Hmmm.

I got an GTX 960 but a new one would fit perfectly because in 3 months i'm upgrading from second generation intel to 6th generation and then I will be broke for the next 2 yearsor so, took me about 3 years to save for the upgrade so a new gpu would boost the peformance even more and I would have an completly up to date build once in my life

I currently have ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5400 in my Dell laptop which is from 2011. And the gpu is overheating (70C-160F when idle!) even if I have sent it to Dell technical services many times. I hate this computer and I am saving money for a new desktop. One of these cards would be an unbelievable boost for me.

I got a Mobile intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family, i am going to be honest i got no gaming rig jest a bad laptop i try to use for gaming and personal use like programing and etc. But i am hoping i win this so it be less money i got to save up for to make my own desktop, like i am tired of the lag on my Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop it is suck a pain, like i can't even play Minecraft anymore it makes it so hard for me to self host stuff, like jest self hosting a PHP web page is a pain, a Minecraft server it is a pain, it drives me nuts how i got to deal with it, then i can't do anything about it, i am kind of in a bad spot, i don't want to get to personal but yeah sucks a lot. I really hope i win this, it will make me one step close to a decent desktop to fit my needs :).

Planning to finally overhauling my computer after a year and a half of saving money (student allowance is a biach), winning this will allow me to get a better cpu and mobo. never owned anything amd ever so this will be interesting if I win.

I've got a HD7850 and have been looking to upgrade for a while. Maybe winning a next gen card would push me to upgrade the rest of my rig O.o

I want it

 

I've got a 970, so it's pretty comparable, but my CPU is an amd fx-6300 so it would be great to sell the 970 and upgrade my processor. Maybe I'll finally get above 30fps in arma 3!

 

Thanks for the giveaway!

I have a GTX 970 and a 1440p monitor, but can't reach 144Hz due to bandwidth limitation :/ An upgrade would be nice.

Currently running a GTX 670. Would love the upgrade so I could enjoy Doom, Metal Gear Solid V, and Rise of the Tomb Raider at much prettier settings.

So AMD's new graphics cards are here, and they are pretty sick... But what's even more sick than hearing about a new graphics card? Owning one for yourself!

Aw yeah man, we are giving away one Polaris 10 video card and one Polaris 11 video card thanks to our good friends over at AMD.

 

So, how do you enter to win one of these fine graphics cards?

 

1. Post a comment below telling us what graphics card you're using in your rig and why you want an upgrade to AMD's Polaris lineup. The two winners will be selected at random, so no, the content of your comment doesn't REALLY matter, but this is more fun than seeing 800 posts of "I want it" or "gibe nao pls."

 

2. Check back here in about a week when the names of our two winners will be added to the OP (giveaway execution is an art not a science people, so I apologize in advance if winners aren't announced in exactly one week).

 

3. Check your inbox here on the forum to make sure you didn't miss it. Our winners' usernames will be added to the OP here, so if you have any question about the legitimacy of a congratulatory message regarding this giveaway, please be sure to check back here and see if your name has been added.

 

And, while this isn't a requirement, feel free to give our friends over at @AMDRadeon on Twitter a follow.

 

Winners will be PMed from this account on the forum. Please do not consider winner messages from any other user in regards to this giveaway.

 

This giveaway is worldwide with no age restriction.

Currently running a ROG MARS 760 x2 an upgrade would be nice and they actually make water blocks for the 480 so I could get my gpu wet and kill some more noise

Running a Nvidia GTX 750 ti Sc with i7-6800,  Asus x99 A II,  32 gig g skill. I am using 3ds max and other resource intensive programs.  My workflow could be greatly improved with a new AMD card!  Here are some test rendesr of some materials in a scene.  I tend to become a bit byzantine with detail; the Greeble modifier is now my bane.

I have and Intel HD 530 from my i5-6600k, and it can run RL @1440p at decent framerates, but with details dialed down to the min. I need a discrete graphics to crank up the details and give this game a look it deserves. :)
