I have an AMD R9 290, and it's been treating me well enough for somethings, but we all know that feeling too well when we can't run every single one of our games on ultra anymore. And that sucks, so these new cards have me salivating, I want one so I can start the process of a full PC upgrade!!

 PowerColor Radeon HD 7850 DirectX 11 AX7850 2GBD5-2DH 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP

 

You can tell from the card that its time to upgrade but what you don't know is that i have only used one other branded GPU (coughnvidiacough) in my builds over the years.  I tried that other brand in one personal build once in college. I mean everyone experiments in college right?  Then came right back to my Radeon cards, stay with me I'll be a good home for you.

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 cardnks 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.

I currently use intel 4000 graphics on an igpu in my laptop. I am curently going to build a new pc soon and it would be my first self built pc. The gpu could go a long way by decreasing the overall amount i have to spend allowing my to allocate more money into other things like a case or better mobo.

Currently using AMD Radeon 7850. I would currently love to have the Rx 470 for obvious reasons i.e. more performance and less power consumption.

Currently running a 7950 Boost, still a surprisingly good card for the age, but this is marked as my year for upgrade, and am strongly considering sticking with AMD in the 480 guise.  Cheers AMD and Linus Tech Tips for another worldwide giveaway from Australia.

I haven't built my rig yet but being in high school money isn't flooding out of my wallet so I could really use this.

To RGB, or not to RGB? That is the question.

My PC is a Dell Optiplex 755 with a NVIDIA Quadro FX 380... yea... I'm going to be upgrading some time this year and a free graphics card would definitely help me out with that. While I may not be the most productive person, or the most deserving of this card, I want to upgrade because I'm an animator. As you can imagine though, animating with this bad of a PC isn't necessarily possible. I would use this for gaming, and 3D animation. Chances are I won't win, but hey why not give it a shot?

My brother runs a 7970. Would be cool to upgrade to something newer and more power efficient!

I'm currently using a Radeon HD7950 as my main card and a GTS450 for Cuda acceleration. I would love to replace those two with a more energy efficient solution xD

I currently am looking to build a gaming rig, I have an AMD APU laptop with an A4-3300m and I am restricted to minecraft.

 

I guess to be honest I have a PC with a 128MB ddr ATI radeon 9700 graphics card. :D

I am using a r7 250 from sapphire and I am very happy with it as a low spec gamer. But something better would be much apreciated.

GTX 760

It's free? Is that a good reason to want one?

It would be a nice upgrade from an old dated 560 ti. It would make it even sweeter if I didn't have to shell out 200+ dollars for a new graphics card either! Any who, best of luck to all contestants and keep up the great work LMG!

I have a GTX 760. It has a hard time with higher settings on newer games, so I think I'm due for an upgrade. I just want to play on higher settings.
