AMD launches gaming site
In an effort to refresh its brand among gamers who are increasingly opting for Nvidia products, AMD has just launched a new gaming website, dubbed AMD Game!, intended as a hub for PC gamers to communicate, collaborate and stay in tune with the latest developments in PC gaming. Gamers will get access to exclusive game content, as well as to all the latest AMD drivers and utilities.
A system check is available on the site to test if your system’s performance meets the minimum requirements to enable certain games. Other features include a configurable toolbar to receive customized news based on user preferences, an IM chat feature, and a video player. Looking to boost subscribers, AMD is offering gamers who register to the site through September, a chance to win two extreme gaming systems powered by AMD, the iBuyPower Gamers Fire 1950 and the CyberPower Gamer Ultra 8800 PRO.
