Non-3d VGA/VESA card
Matrox "something" with 8MB RAM, maybe MGA or Mystique, PCI
AGP Voodoo 3500 (To play quake 3 arena and tribes 2)
Geforce 2 Pro (Hercules)/Radeon LE in separate computers
Gainward Geforce 3 (GTS?)
Radeon 9800 XT (warcraft 3 days)
Radeon something or other- don't really remember, I didn't care too much for performance, just bought a card because I damaged my 9800 due to bending it to remove ram, dumb idea.
Radeon 3870/Geforce 8800 GT Age of Conan inspired me to upgrade, tried both cards are different times.
Radeon 4850
Radeon 5770 (not really an upgrade, but the 4850 was noisey and hot and this was almost the same performance for games I played)
Radeon 5850 (currently still using this one)
