Thats really cool that AMD has done this And is recognizing some of our more vocally supportive 939 members.

I too was wondering about this. Yes they decided to give some free stuff to a few people, but it doesn't help us get new cpus that are socket 939. They were probably just trying to clean off some shelf space in the warehouse.
yea, seriously. typically, old shit that doesnt sell is destroyed, or used as a physical demoAMD[H]unter;1030665966 said:People never cease to amaze me sometimes. AMD just gave away ~$2500 worth of stuff, and all you have to say is that? Nice....nice
But the question is..
What mobos?

Yeah us bastard stepchildren were the first to go out on the limb!
its cool that AMD does see enthusiasts as that.
auctually as a member of hardforum its an interesting experience to see the representatives of the brands I buy showing up to help out or on occasion hand out.
Uhm...they did.And besides, giving away 939 boards to 754 users would be blasphemy!
I figured this would come up. Although we're not giving out super neat toys on the [H] like the 939'ers, AMD is well aware of the 754 group and has recognized us as well, if not more so due to being the first group, and having the largest AMD thread on here, etc. However, we don't want this thing to spiral into other companies grabbing other groups and giving stuff away, other people making threads like "Love your *insert hardware here*" and trying to get PR from it. This is just a way for AMD to say thanks to those of us who are die-hard AMD fans and has nothing to do with any type of marketing ploy/etc. and imo, it needs to stay that way. And besides, giving away 939 boards to 754 users would be blasphemy!
But yes, I have been in contact with Chris as well.

Guys, if you have won, please PM me; so far I only have heard back from 5 of you, winners.
I didn't get mine yet
Forgot to ask in my PM, but will we be getting tracking numbers?
To anyone looking at his title, hell be back tomorrow... stupid drunkard

My schwag just arrived, that's some lightning fast shipping
Edit: I opened the box just now after getting home from class...it wasn't the swag...it was a box of pillows (part of a new comforter set). Darn you Bed Bath and Beyond for getting my hopes up!
