Energy eSports has been doing well, getting a lot of attention in the gaming community. They were already sponsored by Monster Energy (fitting considering their name) and SteelSeries. Now, Proline, AMD and IS Gaming are joining in.
According to Alan Spohr, Marketing and PR Manager for Energy eSports:
We are very excited to have new sponsors of this calibre on board with Energy eSports. Energy is set to receive high-end Gaming Rigs from Proline. Powered by AMD Technology, and quality broadband from IS Gaming who are a division of Internet Solutions. It allows us to use premium and Reliable Machines and bandwidth to compete in all competitions. With the majority of our team still in University or School, it will give the players an added sense of freedom and flexibility to pursue gaming further, train and compete on a professional level without any concerns, also helping us as a team to reach new heights within the gaming community. It’s an honour to be sponsored in general, but a completely new level to be sponsored by such highly rated companies.
This is pretty exciting news. As these teams get more and more sponsorships, we should be able to see them devote more time and energy to the eSports. Once people can support themselves as eSports athletes, the caliber of players will greatly improve and we will be better equipped to compete on the world stage. Congrats to the guys at Energy eSports – I hope this is a sign of some awesome things to come!

R9290x is already on my shopping list. Ill have one by end of the month so I can play BF4 the way it was meant to be played. 😛
GalacticLordCaptainAwesomeness
October 4, 2013 at 12:30
Did you see the price on the swedish website for the Pre-order? something like 1100 USD (BF4 Premium and R9 290X)
Kromas
October 4, 2013 at 12:31
Yeah but I find it hard to believe since the are under NDA to not give out any official pricing yet and all we know is that AMD says the RRP is around $599.
Sir Rants-a-Lot Llew
October 4, 2013 at 12:32
Which means that they are trying to sell a $599 card with a copy of BF4 that comes in at $501. Urm, rip off?
Kromas
October 4, 2013 at 12:34
Most likely a typo since all other websites only show a $100 deposit price currently.
Sir Rants-a-Lot Llew
October 4, 2013 at 12:34
Lol let’s hope so hehe

Sir Rants-a-Lot Llew
October 4, 2013 at 12:31
Well if the claims that it will run at the same as a 780 and for a little cheaper are true then great and hats off to AMD.

Already have the NVidia Fanbois here at work up in arms, threatening me with physical harm, then they remember i’m bigger than them and they run back to play COD (no jokes)

the deal between Internet Solutions and Webafrica was horrible, totally wrecks my gaming.
And dont even get me started on the throttling…
I hope they give better support to Energy than I have been getting since they ruined webafrica.
The Proline and AMD pickup is awesome though.
Gna have to go beg for Xeras old parts when he gets back from rAge
