9700pro, way back in the day.

Going from a Geforce 2 Ti 64mb to a 9700 Pro was a graphical orgasm.
Then the jump from the 9700 Pro to a 7600gt was good but not unexpected performance gains.
The jump from the 7600gt to the 8800gt was wonderful.
After messing around with the TNT and some other cards (I worked at Best Buy at the time and just kept buying and returning cards until I got one I liked), I ended up with a Voodoo Banshee. My next upgrade was an Elsa Gladiac GeForce 2 GTS 32MB, for $350 the week they came out.
The most memorable moment was at a LAN party shortly thereafter. I cranked my Trinitron up to 1600x1200 and ran the Crusher demo in Q2. I got over 50fps. I used to have a screenshot up at http://images.invisibill.net/crusher50.jpg but it looks like the file got corrupted somewhere over the years and host changes. I'll have to see if I can find it on a CD backup somewhere...
Me too I aint gettin rid of it, It's my first 3d card .
I also have my first 1ghz AMD on my keychain. I also still have my first 2400 baud US Supra? modem too.
