A good 10 years of video card history there. Averages out 1 card a year, although the Voodoo 1 wasn't really a video card per sae more of a video accelerator that worked with your existing hardware. Still it makes the list for being so ground breaking, GTX295 SLI my kisss my arse, Voodoo 1, that's were it's at!

3D accelerator
-ATI Xpert@Play 4mb PCI (ATI Rage Pro)
-3Dfx Voodoo 2 12mb PCI

GPU
-Hercules 3D Prophet II GTS Pro 64mb AGP (Geforce 2 Pro)
-Asus Geforce 4 TI 4600 AGP 128mb
-ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb AGP
-ASUS ATI Radeaon X800XT Platinum Edition 256 mb AGP
-XFX Geforce 8800 GTX 768mb PCI-E
-XFX Geforce GTX 285 1gb PCI-E

From 1997 to present

uhm well i upgrade as my gaming needs dictate.

Intel ninetysomething G 64mb integrated vram
Asus Nvidia 128MB 6600GT(AGP days)
EVGA 7900GT 256MG(original ones that died after 6 months or so)
EVGA 8600GTS 256MB(thats what evga replaced my 7900 with once it died)
EVGA 8800GTS 512MB G92( current but its feelin its age)
Next solution is gonna be either an Sapphire HD4850X2orHD4870...dont know yet

3dfx Voodoo 1
Geforce FX 5200
Geforce 6600 GT
Radeon X1800 XT
Geforce 8800GTS 640MB (only reason why i ditched this was it started bugging out on my monitors not supporting my 2 monitors that well i guess super overclocked finally killed it after like 4 years)
Geforce 9500 2 monitors with a hdmi tv set up obviously my priories have changed =p.

1st one is on-board (can't remember)
Sparkle Geforce 4 MX 64 MB AGP 8X
Powercolor Radeon 9600XT 256MB AGP 8X
Inno3d Geforce 6600GT 128MB AGP8X
Leadtek Geforce 7300GT 512MB AGP8X
XFX Geforce FX 5200 128MB AGP8X
BFG Geforce GTX 260 OC Maxcore 55 - FINALLY PCI-E!!!

1: S3 Virge DX 4meg (This card was awsome ! lol)
2: Riva TNT2 32Meg (winfast)
3: Geforce 2 MX (was pretty awful)
4: nvidia 4200ti (I had this card for ages)
5: Ati X800
6: 8800GTS 512meg (I spilt water all over this, and broke it )
7: Zotac 9800GTX (I plan on keeping this one for a while)

Let's see..

some card with my 386 (dunno)

Integrated on my old Intel motherboard (2MB with removable memory on the motherboard!)

Radeon Rage 128 pro

Radeon 7500 PCI 64MB

Radeon 7000 AGP 64MB

Radeon 9600XT AGP 128MB

Radeon X1650XT AGP 512MB

Radeon 2600XT AGP 512MB

Nvidia 8800mGTX 512MB

Suppose I have bought a lot of ATI cards - never realized that. Ha. I had a TNT2 at one point, long with a Geforce 2.

Integrated

TNT2 32mb

Geforce2MX400 64mb

MSI Geforce 5200 128mb

MSI Geforce8500GT 256mb ddr2

PNY Geforce8800GTS 512mb ddr3(arriving tomorrow yeah!)

Pretty loyal to the green camp. Pretty funny the ram value multiplies by 2 in every upgrade.

ATI Radeon 7000 agp 64mb (barely dx7 capable)

Nvidia 6600 256mb AGP (was a cracker back then)

Nvidia 6600GT 256mb AGP (256mb GT models were rare so I was chuffed at having one)

Nvidia 7600GT 256mb PCI-E (wow this thing was easily 2-3 times faster than the old GT, maxed F.E.A.R lol)

Nvidia 7900GT 256mb PCI-E (Even od'd to 700mhz core/850mhz mem was not the upgrade I thought it would be, never had any affection for it)

ATI Radeon 2900 Pro (Heard it was an overclocking legend, died after 24 hours though, curse you Ebay)

ATI Radeon 4870 512mb (got one as soon as they were available, the sheer power was unbelievable. From what ive seen of crysis, its easily between 4 to 6 times (with cat 9.2 id say about 4.5 to 7 times) more powerful than my heavily oc'd 7900gt in the exact same comp. I almost wet myself lolz plan on keeping it for 3 years - so until july 2011 - and let it grow old gracefully like all those 8800GTX owners have been able to do)

Unless its a pig 2900xt style I intend on getting whatever ATI have got for 200 quid in summer 2011.

First, whatever was in a 386, then a 1MB card in a Cyrix P150+ system a friend built for me.

After that, I began to learn and upgrade on my own,..............

Diamond Stealth II S220 4MB PCI - Rendition Verite V2100

Canopus Spectra 2500 16MB AGP - nVidia TNT
Diamond Monster Voodoo 2 12MB PCI - 3Dfx
Diamond Monster Voodoo 2 12MB PCI - 3Dfx
(Had all three in one system with the 2 Voodoo's in SLI)

Voodoo 3 3000 16MB AGP - 3Dfx Voodoo 3

Canopus Spectra 7400 32MB AGP - nVidia Geforce 256 NV10
(This card was not available in the US. A Japanese friend arranged for it to be sent over.)

Leadtek Winfast Geforce 2 GTS 64MB AGP - NV15
Xtasy 6964 Titanium Geforce3 Ti500 64MB AGP - NV20

ATI Radeon 9800PRO 128MB AGP - ATI R350/360

BFG 6800GT OC 256 AGP - nVidia NV45

(On Order) BFG GTX 295 1792MB DDR3 PCI Express

i have only had on-board graphics except for EVGA GeForce 9500 gt 512mb i ordered recently
