Your graphics card history tree?

Voodoo Banshee 16mb
Voodoo 3 3000 (which broke not long after 3Dfx went bust and all the stock had gone for a replacement)
Radeon 7000
Radeon 9800 Pro
Geforce 6800 Ultra
Geforce 7800 GT + another shortly after for SLI (one of these was still going in a work PC up until about 2 years ago!)
Geforce GTX 280
Radeon 6950
Geforce 1070ti
2080 Super
3080 FE

Quite a large hiatus between the 6950 and the 1070ti whilst real life activities like buying a house took over.

Hercules (it had 2 shades of grey, that was it!, 80286 days!)
Cirrus logic local bus (IBM PS/1)
Creative 3D card (really early 3D card, pre-2000)

Voodoo 2 12MB
Nvidia MX something, various of these

Lots of Quadro NVS 295. NVS 410, NVS 310, Quadro 600's

Sure there was a few more, but that's all I can remember.
 
This was hard to remember, think I remembered all the cards I've had. The gen that really annoyed me the most was the X1800XT to the X1900XTX, pretty big performance boost in shader performance for just 3 months apart. Just imagine if Nvidia released a 980 Ti then the 1080 Ti 3 months later :mad:

Jeez!

Nowhere near some of you guys haha!

6800gt
8800gts
PC 5670 512
ATI 5870 ref
XFX 5870x2 in CF
XFX 5970
NV 550ti
NV 570ti
EVGA 680
680x2 in sli
Asus Poseidon 980ti
 
Oh god...... Memory test
Can't rember what was in my 1st pc (IBM blue lightning dx3 75. A gash pc for gaming)

Diamond S3 virge
(Later added gen 1 videologic PVR accelerator)
Replaced that with canopus 6mb 3dfx.
Then Nvidia TNT
Then Nvidia geforce 256 DDR
Then geforce 2 of some description
Then geforce 3 ti 500
Then Radeon 9800pro
Geforce 6600gt (flashed to open the pipes)
Geforce XXX 7800 gtx
(Then left pc gaming for a bit)
Geforce 560ti
Geforce 670
Geforce 980
Geforce 1080ti (my current card).

I used to build pcs to sell so in my time I have had various other machines with hardware to experiment with but the above were ones which made it to *my* machine.

Definitely an NV bias. I am more balanced on the CPU front but imo even since the 1st geforce on the whole NV have edged it for me (my radeon 9800pro was excellent though and came with that little known game half life 2 ;) )
 
Intel 810 chipset 4mb onboard (lol)
3dfx Voodoo 2 12mb (loved that one)
GeForce 2 GTS 32mb
GeForce 4 4200ti 128mb
Radeon 9800 Pro
Radeon X800 GTO (unlocked to 16 pixel pipes)
Radeon X1950 Pro
Radeon 3870
Radeon 4850
Radeon 5850 (can't remember how much memory any of the above Radeon cards had)
Radeon 290 4GB
GTX 980 4GB
GTX 1070 8GB
RTX 2080 8GB

Very few cards compared to some in here! No brand loyalty here either, it was always performance I was after.
