Memory is a little hazy, but I remember having these cards at some point...

Trio 32 2MB (in my first machine).
Matrox G100 8MB
Voodoo Banshee 16MB
TNT
TNT2
GeForce 32MB (DDR version)
GeForce 2
GeForce 3
Various ATI Radeon 9000 series cards
nVidia 6600 256MB
nVidia 6600GT 128MB
nVidia 8600GTS 256MB

Probably a few I missed. Back before the dual VGA cards became common (GF2 days?) you had as many cards as monitors, so I'd throw in whatever card I salvaged form other boxes to support my extra monitors.
