Your graphics card history tree?

ATI Rage Pro
Voodoo Banshee
Voodoo3 3000
Some onboard Sony Vaio laptop rubbish
Nvidia Geforce Ti 4300
ATI X800 XT Platinum Edition
Nvidia Geforce 8800GTX
ATI Radeon X1650
Intel GMA 950 (NC10 netbook)
ATI HD9650
 
From memory, I think it goes as follows:

1Mb Trident 9440
4Mb Creative Labs Blaster Extreme
16Mb Voodoo 3 2000
64Mb GeForce 3 Ti 500
128Mb GeForce 4 Ti 4600
128Mb Radeon 9700 Mobile
256Mb Radeon 2600 XT
512Mb GeForce GT240
1Gb Radeon 5770

Remember paying £350 for the Ti4600 and £300 for the Ti500 - Crazy prices - Infact I still own both of them, the 4600 is still in its original system, but hasn't been switched on for about five years. The 500 is in the 4600's original box. Paid too much to simply bin them!

Been trying to remember what I had in my old 386 DX40 but I just can't remember, it was rubbish whatever it was.
 
Really got into pc gaming around 98/99

onboard packardbell rubbish (that couldnt even run MDK)--> Voodoo 2 (awww yea)--->32mb TNT2 ---> Hercules something something (good but didnt have shaders so i couldnt play gta 3)-->Radeon 9800GT --> 6600GT ---> 8800GT and now a 260.

Every upgrade since the Radeon 9800GT seemed to lack overall impact :(
