Interesting question.

Orchid Righteous 3D (4MB 3DFX Voodoo)

3DFX Vooodoo3 3000 AGP (Didn't fit xD Kept it anyway. So I also bought...)

3DFX Voodoo3 2000 PCI

NVIDIA GeForce FX5200 128MB AGP

ATI Radeon X1600 Pro 256MB AGP

And that's all. I moved onto laptops since then, but I still have some pretty decent dedicated graphics cards in those. No Intel GMA or basic ATI/NVIDIA graphics cards to be found here.

[RiverCampher]

Number 9 Motion FX Reality 771 (What a weird name for a gfx card & not too great as I remember!)

Voodoo 1 MB (Paired with above)

2 x Voodoo 2's.

TNT2

Geforce 1

Geforce 2

Radeon 9500 Pro

Nvidia 6600 GT

Nvidia 7950 GT X2

ATI 4870

All I can remember anyway!

Considering only discrete graphics, seven. The question should be: how many have you spent on all of them together? :p

[Jim K Global Moderator]

Texas Instruments TMS9928A (built into my first "computer", Adam by Colecovision in 1984)

Cirrus Logic something or another (built into AST computer bought in 1995)

[ray_finkle]

Radeon VE

Radeon 9700 Pro

Geforce 8800 GTS

[Fraud OS 11]

OMG I'm scared of numbers above 10. Those people must be rich. And all these years, I felt guilty for spending a bit more on graphics.

I went a good almost two years without my PC working at all (was a Mac user and had just gotten the 360) but I know I have had...

ATi 9 something

Nvidia 5 something

Nvidia 5900 Ultra

Nvidia GTX 285

Honestly that 5900 ultra is what got me though most of my gaming and the one I used the longest. That really lasted me a decent amount of time, in fact my brother in law still has it.

[+shift. MVC]

My first ever card was XFX 6600 GT. Bought in november 2005 but died early due to overclocking.

Then i bought XFX 8600 GT in august 2007. It recently died due to age maybe. Most of the capacitors on the card blew up.

Now I am using XFX 9600GT. Its working fine so far. :p

You could easily RMA all of those because XFX has lifetime warranty.

[jimbo11883]

1. nVidia Vanta TNT 2 32MB (PCI)

2. ATI 9200se 128MB (AGP)

3. nVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra 512MB (AGP)

4. AMD Radeon 4560 1GB (PCIe)

I think I got them all right, not sure.

[lordvj]

some-SiS-32MB card

Geforce 4MX - worst card ever!

ATI 9650

XFX 8600GT

XFX 9800GT

wow same as victor rambo lol

[stereopixels]

You could easily RMA all of those because XFX has lifetime warranty.

But you have to have registered them within 30 days and they can't fail due to physical damage - e.g. if you blow a cap or burn the chip out whilst overclocking.

[Andre S. Veteran]

Radeon 9600SE (still running today)

Radeon X800XL (died recently, was replaced by old 9600SE)

Geforce 8800GTS 320MB (had mild artifacting, never liked it)

Radeon HD 4890 (replaced the Geforce, kicks ass)

[+jamesyfx Subscriber²]

The word 'Lifetime warranty' has obviously not been understood here. It's the lifetime of the product on the market.

So once it's discontinued, so is your warranty. Though in some cases they may attach a few years warranty after the product leaves the market, but it'll be in the documentation.

[pyehac]
