well mine first was
Hercules Graphics Card (HGC)
don't really remember what ive hard inbetween
i had the card that was upagainst the voodoo can't remember it name
had a gf2,gf4,gf6800ultra,gf8800ultra
there also a few ATI cards i had inbetween the GF but can't remember there names

trying to work out what to go for next, the g280 is the most powerfull but the 4870 is better value

Im such a n00b In comparison to some of u guys, it really shows where my mind has travelled in the last 4/5 years in pc building.


Radeon IGP 345M - firstly laptop for portable
X800XL - the mid range for first PC
7600GT silent - then I went through a silence is everything stage.
8800GTX - this was my oooo I want the best stage
9800GX2 - again with the above
8800GTS
maybe a 4870 next month
- now im moving on to something more portable (SFF) but still watercooled and very powerful.
 
Very short history for me:
Voodoo 3 3000 > Geforce 3ti200 (still got) > X800XL (still got) > X1950XTX 512MB GDDR4 (currently use in gaming rig)
Also have Geforce 8600M GT in the MBP..
 
In order from about 1997.

Matrox Mystique 4MB
3DFX Voodoo
Geforce 2 GTS - which had just come when i bought it. The only time i've ever owned the top card on the market
Geforce2 Ti
Geforce 3
ATi 9500 (soft modded to a 9700)
Nvidia GeForce 6800 AGP
ATi X1950pro PCI-E (Current card for the last 18 months almost)

That's less than i thought.
