"CyberMax has combined the best technologies from AMD, Microsoft, and
3Dfx, to engineer two of the most powerful series of computing systems

together for years bringing the latest technology to the direct
channel. This collaboration will serve as a critical test for similar
product launches in the future."

CyberMax has orchestrated a two part sweepstakes as part of 3D Storm.
Phase one starts today, offering two different systems based on the
K6-III, The Enthusiast Rebel ZX geared toward gamers, and the
Entrepreneur Pro RL aimed at Windows NT users. The second phase starts
the following month incorporating the launch of the new 3DFx VooDoo3
video card with a nine system sweepstakes and several prizes from other

 About the K6(R)-III processor with 3DNow!:
 The AMD-K6-III processor with 3DNow!(TM) technology is the
ultimate sixth- generation processor for home PC enthusiasts and
business power users. The AMD-K6-III processor combines 3DNow!
technology with AMD's new TriLevel Cache design to deliver exceptional
performance on leading business and consumer software applications.
The AMD-K6-III boasts as much as one speed grade advantage in
performance on leading business and home applications when compared to
a similarly clocked Pentium III. The key to this enhanced performance
is the innovative TriLevel Cache design of the AMD-K6-III, which
provides the largest total system cache for desktop PCs -- more than
four times the size of Pentium III based PCs.
