What was your first accelerated graphics card? I'm only asking for 3D accelerated one, no old ega or vga stuff.
For me, it was the Voodoo2 and got another later on and "linked" them. After that, I had a ATI 3D Rage Pro by S3, then GeForce 2mx. Oh boy, did I have that GeForce for a LONG time.
Then got a GeFroce 5950XT with the Hynix ram chips and slapped a CPU heat sink on it and overclock the hell out of it. I was only 15, and had almost no money .
Got a Laptop with a 9700pro on it when I joined the Army. Did pretty well in 140F heat! Then a 8800GTS (Fried it), then a 8800 GTX, then a second. One 8800GTX died, so I sold the other, got a 4870, then a 5870 and sold it during the bit-coin craze, and now have a pair of 6850's.
I love my hobby but I receive much wrath from household 6*. If a Army unit call sign was say for example
* This is Army Lingo. If a Army unit's call-sign was "The Bastards", then the CO would be called Bastard 6 and the CSM would be called Bastard 5. Now, you can guess my old platoon's call-sign.
