Seeing that biggest video card leap thread brought this to mind
As far back as you can remember, what is your video card history?

Judging from my upgrade pattern, I guess I'll be getting an AMD card next. :D
 
Yes, I saw those, but I have been reprimanded by moderators in the past for "resurrecting old threads." Those are about 3 years old.

There are *literally* 2 hot card history threads running right now...

If you never used an RF adapter to use a computer, you have never lived.

:cool: Nice!

I used one quite a bit, but then was given a Commodore composite / S-Video (Before it was called S-Video) monitor, and didn't need one anymore.
