AMD Named “Brand of the Year” in Trusted Reviews “Best Tech 2017 Awards”
November 13 2017 - 9:00AM
AMD (NASDAQ:AMD) has won twice at the prestigious Trusted Reviews
Awards 2017, including the reader’s choice of “Best Tech 2017 Brand
of the Year” and “PC Component of the Year” for AMD and for the AMD
Ryzen™ processors, respectively.
Trusted Reviews, a highly respected news and media
website in London, UK, is a comprehensive source of independent
expert reviews, user reviews and news about consumer electronics,
and holds their annual awards celebrating the very best products
launched in the tech world each year.
“AMD redefined what gamers could expect from their
PCs this year, which is a major factor in winning the reader-voted
award. In doing so, it beat Samsung, Apple, and Intel,” said Evan
Kypreos, Editor of Trusted Reviews, at its 10th annual Trusted
Reviews Awards. “The award tops off a sterling year for the
company, which boasted a 300% profits increase in its most recent
earnings report thanks to huge sales of its new Ryzen
processors.”
While the winner of the “Brand of the Year”
category is decided by the public, the “PC Component of the Year”
award is selected by a panel of Trusted Reviews experts, choosing
AMD Ryzen processors from a full range of products launched in the
last 12 months and reviewed by Trusted Reviews experts.
In its coverage of the “PC Component of the Year”
award, Trusted Reviews wrote: “AMD’s Ryzen chips were first
launched in March this year. In the intervening months they’ve
changed the landscape of the processor market, bringing huge and
relatively affordable multi-core power to PC gamers worldwide. The
Ryzen 3, 5 and 7 chips all received Recommended awards in their
Trusted Reviews reviews, which is no mean feat in such a
competitive market.”
“2017 has been an incredible year for AMD in delivering both AMD
Ryzen processors and Radeon™ RX Vega Graphics to a passionate
response from enthusiasts, whom appreciate the industry-leading
innovation AMD brings to the PC market,” said AMD Chief Marketing
Officer John Taylor. “We’re thrilled and grateful to the Trusted
Reviews audience for their recognition of continued AMD efforts to
push the boundaries of what is possible for developers,
enthusiasts, creators, consumers and gamers.”
