    It was a gigabyte vega 56, don’t have a pic on me rn but that was an interesting experience

  2. CounterSided

    It was an R7 240

    Piece of garbage for sure

    My dad bought me an MSI GTX 660 Gaming 2G OC. I played so much Minecraft and Borderlands 2 on that thing.

    Nvidia BFG 8800 GTS

    Couldn’t afford the GTX, and this was before the GT came out. And you know what, that thing has been in use every day since I bought it. It’s currently the video output of my mom’s computer, and what a little guy. Just chugging along like he don’t give a shit.

    Mine was a BFG 8800GTX. Absolutely loved the card. I bought it the week it released. Did Crysis run better? Um…yes?

    Radeon HD 4350 512mb half height card. Had it in a custom ordered win 7 dell slimline PC when 7 was still a new OS.

    Radeon HD 5450. Secretly upgraded my parents PC to play Oblivion.

  10. My first was a full height GT 730 with GDDR5. I at least didn’t make the DDR3 mistake. Lol

    First card was Voodoo 2.

    First purchase was GeForce MX4000.

    Didn’t take long before I got a different card. The fx 5700le…

    So naturally it wasn’t even like 6 months later I got a 6600GT for Christmas and kept it around for quite some time.

    Made sure to learn every feature and quirk on each card as I upgraded. The MX4000 was overclocked to like double speed on the core and memory. The 5700le was flashed with Quadro firmware. And I wanted to get the 6800GS to unlock the extra pipes, but the 6600GT was still awesome.

    Mine was a 1080, and it’s still rocking today

    Trident VLB VGA adapter. Thousands of colors in Windows 3.1 if you didn’t push the resolution!
