PowerColor DirectX 11 Experience Contest

The rules are simple! just submit a picture of your first DX11 experience moment, you’re reaction, or you’re cat reaction to your reaction, anything that might relate to your first DX11 Experience! You just have to hope that others will vote for you as the most original.

This competition has five communities as partners where you can submit your picture, later the community you submitted your picture will vote for the most original one to represent their community. The winner of each community will get brand new PowerColor PCS+ 5770.

When each community has found its winner will then go on direct competition with the other communities winners in a voting that will be held at PowerColor's website to find the craziest picture of all. The winner gets a PowerColor PCS+ HD5870.

Click on one community logo below and show them why you had to close you’re room when you got your first DX11 ready card.

Just being honest. My first DX11 experience back in October was Heaven and these nice artifacts caused by faulty voltage regulator

I call this masterpiece "The Flower"

My first experiences with the DX11 was as if a new window had been open in terms of expectation for developments with the intention to obtain a VGA with the right!
