GPU History

1. 2003: GeForce 3 (forgot the sub-category; it was a Gainward Golden Sample though)
2. 2004: GeForceFX 5200 Ultra (128MB) (Gainward)
3. 2005: GeForceFX 5900XT (128MB) (Gainward)
4. 2006: GeForce 7900GT (256MB) (XFX)
5. 2007: GeForce 8800GTS (320 MB) (XFX) (personal favorite, overclocked like a beast)
6. 2008: Radeon 4870 (512MB) (Sapphire)


My next GPU will depend on the refreshes from nVIDIA or ATI at the beginning of the year....however, I distrust nVIDIA now with all the hardware failure rates as my wife's laptop was a casualty...fortunately we had and extended warranty that HP honored.

Damn...I did one of these a while back...but can't find the thread so we're gonna depend on my memory again lol!

SiS Onboard
S3 Trio64v+ w/memory upgrade
ATI Rage 3D
3Dfx Voodoo Banshee
GeForce 2 MX440 AGP
Gigabyte 9600Pro 128MB AGP
ATI X850Pro 256MB AGP (modded to X850XT PE)
Powercolor X1950Pro 256MB PCI-E
ATI X1950XTX PCI-E
Palit 9600GT Sonic 512MB PCI-E
EVGA GTX260 896MB PCI-E
EVGA GTX260 Core216 896MB PCI-E

That's all I can remember, I know some gaps aren't filled near the beginning of the list...but I just can't quite recall lol. I still have the GTX260 216 of course, the 9600GT is modded and running in my G/F's rig, the X850XT PE, 9600Pro, Voodoo Banshee, and 1950XTX.

My favorite cards are:

Voodoo Banshee, many dissed this little 16mb PCI ard, but, for me it allowed me to game...where the S3 Trio 64v+ was barely capable. It still works too!

ATI x850XT PE, modified my PRO to this very easily, slapped an ATI Silencer 5 rv2, oc'd it further, great damn card overall, still pretty capable in some modern games.

Palit 9600GT, so overclockable and with a little and very simple vGPU mod, it goes pretty far, runs pretty cool, especially now with the AC S1 cooler + turbo module on it.

GTX260's...both were great, pretty damn oc-able, both worked perfectly out of the box, both are great performers, their stock cooling is very good on temps, my GPU never goes above 60C, and my VRM's usually stay 3-5C below GPU temps. This is my favorite card, because it just gets the job done...in the HD48xx vs GTX2xx war, the 260 won my vote for stability, cooling, price, performance. Everyone has their own opinion, which is cool..but this card flat out rocks!

i cant even remember the correct name of my first ones

i had an ati 4mb card.
then an 8 mb matrox tv card which was awesome for the time.
then i added an 8 mb voodoo 2 card which was the first form of sli/crossfire and it made my system blaze.
then i went to a new system with an onboard intel gpu which sucked.
so i added an ati 9000 pro which was decent for medal of honor and ghost recon.
then i upgraded to a x700 which was pretty awesome.
then the x1800 xt which i replaced in less than 2 years,
with a nvidia 9600gt.
and finally my current card the nvidia 9800gtx+
