What is your GPU history

Matrix 3d
Voodoo2
Tnt2 ultra ( quake3 :))
Geforce, 2, 3 ,4 4600TI
X800xt
970pro
980pro

1800xt
8800gt
5850
670gtx

Still being used today,
670gtx, 6450, r7 550

Fancy a upgrade but I only game now and then and its normally indie games and older FPS quaje etc , AAA games just don't interest me any more.

Should have picked up hd580 back when they were under £200. Not playing this stupid game on current prices.

Went console gaming for several years.

Come back with a Sapphire RX480 8gb nitro. I still have the Voodoo 5500 which is a rare Mac version. ( Flashed with pc bios) Worth a pretty penny now.

Not sure if I'm remembering all these in order and I'm sure I'm missing some out.

My memory is awful these days.

EDIT: Actually that might have been the HD 7970, I know I used two AMD cards for a year, I'm just getting them confused I think.

HD1950 is much older, so should slot in somewhere before that, I think.

Ah that would probably do I - HD1950 to 7970 makes sense :)

5450
6770
280x
970
480
970
1060
1070

1080
vega 64
 
In terms of cards I've used for any length of time...

HD 4870
HD 7850
GTX 570
GTX 780
R9 290X
GTX 980
GTX 980 Ti
GTX 1060
GTX 1080
GTX 1080 Ti

I've had tons of other cards for brief periods though. Too many to remember, but including things like the R9 270, R9 280X, R9 Nano, R9 Fury, RX 480, GTX 960 and GTX 970.
 
1. Geforce MX440
2. ATI 9800pro
3. ATI 2900xt
4. AMD 7870 (been through the oven twice to keep it alive).

Very simple, I don't upgrade often :p
 
Geforce 3 something
Geforce 4 something
Geforce 4ti 4200
ATI 9800 pro
Geforce 7900 GTX
Geforce 8600 GT
AMD 5850
AMD 7950
AMD RX480 - current card
 
Cirrus Logic 2MB
Matrox G200 8MB
GeForce 2 MX-400 32MB
Sapphire Radeon X1600 Pro 256MB GDDR2
GeForce 8500GT 512MB
Asus Radeon HD 4670 512MB DDR3 (EAH4670DI512M)
Sapphire Radeon HD 4890 1GB GDDR5
Gigabyte Radeon HD 6870 OC 1GB GDDR5
SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon™ R9 380 4G D5 with back plate

(I remember the transition from Matrox G200 8MB to GeForce 32MB, bought the latter for playing Counter-Strike, was a complete disappointment, laggy framerate in Counter-Strike and awful image quality in 2D desktop, compared to the Matrox G200 8MB).
