Hey! Am I allowed to use these rank names legally?

Hi!

I am FreakyPlaya, and I having ideas on rank names for my server. They have to do with Intel/Ryzen CPU names and other products by these companys. I was wondering if for example I could use the name "I7" or "Xeon" or "Threadripper" or any of the product names from any of these companys for my rank names on my server? (I would be selling these ranks for real money) Is this legal?

well i doubt your server is big enough to be even noticed by intel or amd but better safe then sorry i guess

Those listed names would be allowed, as officially "I7" "XEON" and "Threadripper" are not owned by both AMD and Intel however im not too sure if you were going to name them something like "i7-6700K"

No, the rank names would specifically be like: I3 as the lower rank, and Xeon as the higher rank. There would be no extended numbers or letters on the end to duplicate the exact name of Intels/Ryzens CPU names or any other product. Just the starting leter and number. "I9". So this IS allowed?

Id assume so.

I9 9900k > most xeons.
