GTX 650 Ti Super used for 80 bucks. Love that card and man did it get me through tough times.
Radeon HD 6570, bit humble. Still not very powerful, I only have a GTX 950 at best, I don't PC game much these days
For my first gaming rig (gift)? GTX 980.
With my own money? 2080 TI
First and last. Radeon 9600xt
The first one I got was some integrated cirrus logics chip that didn't even have 3d acceleration. The first one I bought with my own money was a GeForce 7800GT in late 2005
ATI Mach32 EISA. It looked to good on paper, but somehow, it did not make DOS go brrrrrr ๐
First custom pc I got had a NVIDIA 6600 gt
It was some on board gpu with my super amazing AMD K6-2, it couldn't even run mega man X without chugging. Then a friend gave me an S3 Virge with a glorious 4mb vram.
evga GTX 770 It never died
Replaced it with an evga GTX1080 it blew up 2 months out of warranty.
they sent me rtx 2070 despite the warranty(MISS YOU EVGA). I gave that card to my wife and upgraded to a 3080 from aorus.
the card is great, but the software that comes with the card is beyond awful. I will probably get an Asus next time.
Riva TNT 16MB, brand name Elsa, card called Erazor.
The first I bought for myself was a PNY XLR8 GeForce GTS 250 in 2010. It tided me over for 4 years, until my power supply gave a loud POP, and I replaced pretty much the whole build just in case the other parts were damaged (or caused the damage).
I had an ATI all in wonder 9600. That card was very unique because it also had a built in TV tuner and AV capture card that could turn your PC into a DVR of sorts. It went into an agp slot before PCIe was a thing.
My dad got us a voodoo FX banshee on our home computer back in the day. I guess the first one I personally bother would have been a GTX 970
Oh man, talk about bringing me back in time. My first card was a voodoo 2.
An Nvidia GeForce 6200. It could run assassin's creed, the first one.
3dfx Voodoo2, followed by a Riva tnt2. Good times were had.
I believe I had the Riva tnt2. After that upgrading to the original GeForce 256. Was on my Intel Celeron 300A that you could overclock to a whopping 450mhz!
I have no idea what i had in my earliest PCs, but the first 3d graphics card was the 3dfx Orchid Righteous 3d.
rx580. still have it on top of a shelf.
I don't know what hardware my first computer had because I didn't even know what a GPU was at the time... But the first GPU I ever bought was the 8600 GT.
