TEK9 Cinema Minimovie Contest by AMD

We are very proud to announce the next TEK9 Cinema Contest in cooperation with AMD. Dubbed the AMD Phenom™ II Movie Contest, this movie contest will bring all the action to your front door. Focused on small, action packed shots we are giving everyone the chance to win a new AMD Phenom™ II X4 940 3GHz Socket AM2+ processor.

Because we really want people to focus on the action for example a five man takedown, a great clutch, a fantastic team round,  etc we have limited the maximum allowed time to 90 seconds. The minimum for all entries is one minute. For more rules and regulations please head over to the official forum thread with all the info grouped together on how to enter, how to upload and what restrictions there are for entries. The official intro for the entries will be released shortly.
