The FX brand is associated AMD’s fastest processors and most powerful platforms – those designed for unrestrained PC performance for the ultimate gaming and HD entertainment experiences. In addition, these processors and platforms drive rich visuals for graphics intensive applications and high-resolution AMD Eyefinity multi-monitor configurations.

AMD even ended the first day’s convention with an invite-only party at the exclusive Katsuya Japanese restaurant. It was a good way to end the day and we even got some gaming in while eating!
