When AMD Went to PAX West

Signs, red, rebellion—the Radeon Rebellion was in full swing at PAX West in Seattle last weekend, with AMD staff and fans united in demanding great graphics for all and declaring themselves to the #BetterRed movement.

If you had a chance to visit PAX West, you might’ve seen AMD’s red booth on the floor throughout the week showing off Radeon™-powered PCs for our VR stations and LAN Arenas, and of course our powerhouse graphics cards including the Radeon RX 400 series—up close!

And if you were some of the lucky few, you might’ve walked away with some goodies from our giveaways, all thanks to our partners over at ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, PowerColor, Sapphire, XFX™ and VisionTek.

Recognize these guys? We had Saahil “UNiVeRsE” Arora and Peter “ppd” Dager, professional DotA 2 players from Evil Geniuses, visit the AMD booth to play games with fans and sign autographs:

A presence at PAX West wouldn’t be complete without some photos of cosplayers, and our own Gilbert Leung swayed a few over alongside our signs:

We closed off the PAX weekend with some League of Legends play, where eager fans and onlookers swarmed to our LAN Arena to compete in the Radeon-powered battlegrounds.

PAX West came and went quickly, but you’ll see more of us in time to come. Be sure to follow @AMDGaming to see what we’re up to for upcoming events. Until then—demand more: join the #BetterRed movement.
