AMD Polaris Giveaway

-Created my set-up in January/February:

 

The GPU I possess is a Sapphire R7-370 4G GDDR5

Which can run the 'The Witcher 3' at ~35-40+  at Ultra  Settings. It's pretty impressive on my count.

Along with the rest of the tower contains a Quad-Core  AMD F X-4350  Which has a speed of 4.2Ghz  (Which is capable of being over/under-clocked in conjunction with my ASUS Motherboard).

The ASUS M5A99FX R2.0 Motherboard. (Pretty great for the price and performance.)

Rosewill's Platinum 80+ 650W PSU which is fully modular. (I was able to buy it on Newegg for half it's original price.)

8 Gigs of G. Skill Sniper Series DDR3 1866Mhz 9-10-9-10 Timing

Lastly I managed to purchase the newer Western Digital 1TB Black Edition HDD.

 

It can warm a room but it's pretty chill when not in extensive use. Great for winters.

 

I've heard a few things on the AMD 400 Series and I've now become appealed to want to test the hardware. It's unfortunate I just bought my GPU months before the new release.

 

Overall this is definitely a great performance desktop pc for the price: ~$700 (Due to some impatience).

i own a 2009 imac 27 inch with a ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB graphics card :(

 

my backlight driver board is also shot so if i turn up my brightness my display turns off... i can only game (the few i can still run anyway) at night due to glare:'( 

 

i think my power supply is going too.... 

 

^ all that makes me wanna kill myself... a new gpu would would be a god send... would go a long way in justifying repairing and selling my imac to finance a new build

 

<3 mad love for all you guys do keep it up....

My current graphics card is AMD R7 360. It would be the ideal improvement.

I hope to win.

Oh, and I'm rocking the stellar R9 270X (OOH! AAH!)

 

Yeah, so it's time for an upgrade, but poor college kid status is impeding that a little, haha

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.

 

Best of luck to all!!

In use a HD 6850 so I'm lacking behind and a new Ploaris would be comfortable in my pc rig. Hope I get lucky keeping my fingers crossed ☺☺☺

I am currently running a 970, but since I recently purchased a Freesync 1440p monitor more Vram could be handy for future games. Even more useful would be that it has driver support for Freesync (yay red team).

I'm using a Nvidia gtx 650 ti, I currently play games like overwatch, dark souls, crysis, bioshock and others.

I want an upgrade to a polaris amd because on newer titles im having to set the graphics settings to minimum to maintain more than 30 fps on my monitor.

Also where I live (in Chile) there is almost no availability of AMD cards, so my next option on the list is a gtx 970, but the price here is still around $500, so no chance with that any time soon.
