AMD Polaris Giveaway

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." One comment (entry) per user.

 

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.

 

Best of luck to all!!

 

EDIT: Winners

 

Polaris 10 winner: Alright, SOMEONE needs to take this GPU! :P Let's see if @UltraNeonGaming wants it :) you have 72 hours to respond @Herb12 UPDATE: New winner for Polaris 10 is

Congrats to our winners! They have 72 hours to respond. If we don't hear back in that time, a new winner (or new winners) will be selected.

My current graphics card is  Sapphire R9 280 Dual-X OC. I'd love to have a Polaris based graphics card so I can enjoy the experience of 4k or surround gaming. Eventually I'd want to get a HTC Vive and experience VR at its best, and a Polaris 11 card would help me get there.

I honestly need it, not for my rig (gtx780) but for the flight simulator I made on a budget (2x 660ti in sli) (in my signature)

its really hard to keep stable and after 5 months im still tweaking it.

a decent single gpu would solve ALL the problems :)

4 screens is hard to run xD

I have an R9 380X so a 480 would be an upgrade, if I get a 470 or 460 I'll be giving it to my brother who has no graphics card :P (unless the 470 is better than the 380X)

Might make a ITX rig if I ever win it or give it to a friend in need. I don't care, if it's free, I'll make sure I have at least a slim chance of getting it.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

I have a reference 290 right now. The lower power draw seems very interesting

I would like to put it in my PC

I've got a 4790k with a  R7 260x and I have to run games at 900p :( to maintain a good 60 fps.

I would love A Polaris GPU which would finally enable me to run Games Tripple A games at 1080p for a good frame rate.

FPS <3

Because a RX480 that outperforms my dual 5850s can't be bad.  Polaris 10 all the way for me.  Should prove to be a wonderful upgrade to my old rig, or a great starting point for a potential new build in Japan.
