Here is my history:

3dfx Voodoo - late 90's
Matrox Millennium - I think 1999/2000
NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4400 128MB - 2002
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 256MB - 2004
NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT 512MB - 2006
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512MB - 2007
AMD Radeon HD 4890 1GB - 2009
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 1GB - 2011
AMD Radeon R9 290 4GB - 2014

I think I had a number of Voodoo cards as I remember they rally changed the market and set the scene for what we have today. Before 3dfx came along, I got whatever cheap card could run X-Wing on a 386DX33.
Looks like I am on for Nvidia 2016 next!

Wow, some people have been through a lot of graphics cards... I have only been through a few in comparison. Of which only 2 are discreet desktop GPUs, as of yesterday or this Monday depending on how one looks at it. I haven't been doing this for very long either, so it makes sense. My first PC was only back in 2004 and I've only been customising/building for the past few years.

Unknown 32mb graphics - ???

Nvidia GTX 670M - MSI (<-laptop GPU, does it count?)
