DH COMPETITION: Win an AMD FX51 CPU - now closed.

Well our last competition saw a staggering amount of entries and has recently just ended.

This time your friendly Driverheaven has an AMD FX 51 cpu up for grabs, all you have to do to be in with a shot of winning this awesome processor is to post a funny one liner in this thread on our forum in this thread - something AMD related would be best suited. Everyone is allowed to enter as many times as they feel so get the thinking caps on.

Ill be closing this competition on 31st May 2004 so you have plenty of time to enter then ill wade through the entries and come up with a winner a little later - probably chosen at random (depending on the amount of entries).

Staff are allowed to enter except administration staff. My decision will be final and all bitching will be ignored.

If you want the fastest car out there - buy a Mclaren F1

If you want the fastest plane out there - talk to NASA

If you want the fastest boat out there - talk to the military

And do you want to be the fastest in the world in every aspect - GET A AMD

How are Intel and AMD the same?

They both are slow, except for AMD.

I walked into the bar with a splitting headache. I had spent two days trailing that data trying to find out what it all meant, and had gotten myself nowhere. I slumped down at the bar and asked the bartender for something to ease my pain. Expecting something in a double malt I looked up to see the bartender grin, and slid me an AMD.
