For a half cen­tu­ry, AMD pushed the boun­da­ries of what’s pos­si­ble in high-per­for­mance com­pu­ting to crea­te new expe­ri­en­ces and pos­si­bi­li­ties for hundreds of mil­li­ons of peo­p­le,” said John Tay­lor, chief mar­ke­ting offi­cer at AMD. “We cele­bra­te this moment with our fans around the world who inspi­re us to push for­ward in that spi­rit for ano­ther fif­ty years to 2069 and beyond.”

With the new Gold Edi­ti­on AMD Ryzen pro­ces­sor and AMD Rade­on gra­phics card, AMD invi­tes fans to cele­bra­te the company’s 50-year jour­ney.
