The first AMD product that I bought was the HD4850 graphics card. It was awesome value for money and ran all the latest games on the highest settings. It's still being used today and works great.
Also got an ATI HD6630m in my laptop and the performance is quite impressive.
AMD Graphics > NVidia Graphics
but
AMD CPUs < Intel CPUs
...or this is what I have always preferred.

I've always been an AMD fan, my first "real" pc was an AMD 700, and it was AWESOME, had it for almost 5 years before I had to upgrade. the 700 was replaced by a 64bit 1800+, had that one for another 4 years. but since then, I'm ashamed to say, I have using intel, not by choice, but by default, since my last 3 upgrades were free trades. but sure as bananas are yellow, when I got the bucks I WILL be getting myself an FX-series X8
I've always liked AMD, so take all this with a helping of salt.
My last two chipsets were AMD, both Gigabyte boards; these were both incredible. The stability, versatility and raw power I got was a lot of fun. With the last box, I got my first quad core. Coming from a dual core and working with CPU intensive problems (CFD, FEM and CAD, with meshing code written in Matlab), the quad core was an incredible experience. With the quad core, I also switched back to and ATI card, the 5850. The card is still running strong, with very little signs of aging; I'm guessing I'll only have to upgrade when the 8xxx series comes out! My next box will definitely be an AMD board and card combo.
My fanboyism comes from my great experience with AMD products, and Intel fanboys can try their hardest to convince me otherwise, but they won't.
I have been an AMD geek/junkie/fanboi/slut? for the last 13 years. I love my AMD CPU's, I love my AMD(ATI) GPU. And I am going AMD again this year end when I am doing my upgrade.
They have been stable for me, and I prefer AMD for my gaming rigs.
AMD = WIN
I've had an AMD dual core cpu in my pc for 4 years...never given me a problem
Love amd got a tripple core, games work brilliantly,need more ram,should have got amd long time ago,the best in gaming,video,e.c.t
My old AMD 3000+ was a really good chip and kept me going for some time. Currently I have opted not to get the AMD cpu and go with intel purely because the i5 2500k is such a boss chip!
Still running my 6850 AMD card, it runs wonderfully !!!!
I have always been a fan of AMD, as my brothers introduced me to them back in the days of Half Life 1. Amd for me has always been more power for your cash, and I have never had any issues with it.
I need more RAM, and the AMD RAM should complete my BF3 rig

I've been using AMD equipment for over 7 years and I have never had a problem with them. They make some of the best products in terms of price as well as reliability. Their items are really what you can call, value for money.
