    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

    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).

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I forgot the first one, but I remember I upgraded it to an ATi Rage Pro so I could play Baldur’s Gate, which needed 8 megabytes of video ram. Later I paired it with a Voodoo 2. I think it was the Diamond Monster one. And that one got replaced with a Matrox G200, which got replaced with Kyro II. I picked some odd cards back then.

    I think I had a Voodoo 3 at some point. Then a Voodoo 5 at the family PC.

    Then on my own PCs Radeon 1900Xt -> radeon 4780 -> radeon 7770 -> radeon 480 -> rtx 2070 super.
