I have no clue; I know at one time I had a s3 or something or other with 4 or 8 or so whopping mb of memory; and I remember have two Voodoo3 2000; one pci and one agp. The one that was pci ended up in my freebsd box when I upgraded to something with better 3d support (the voodoo card had great 2d support and was wonderfully fast in the bsd box). I had a 9800 at one point but there was something between the 9800 and the voodoo; maybe it was a ti4200 (used in a kt333) and now I have a 7300gs (which I dislike) in the linux box (gave up on freebsd after 10 years) and I used an x1800xt for a couple of years in the game box but then upgraded to a 8800 g92; and for $100 less than I paid for the x1800xt I picked up a 6950 2gb for the windows 7 box and that's where I am now.

So I think it went something like
victor 9000 (800x400 monochrome) 1983
mac something or other (the original cube; lousy machine) 1985?
pc clone 286 (no clue what it had) 1986
s3 (dos/bsd dual boot p100) 1995
voodoo3 or maybe it was tnt then voodoo 3 (windows 95-later freebsd)
then a second voodoo3 for my sister pc
4200 (windows 98)
9800 (windows 98 - upgraded to xp)
7300gs (linux)
x1800xt (windows xp)
8800 g92 (windows xp)
6950 (windows 7)

Hum. I'm sure i had one other video card in there but maybe the voodoo 3 lasted longer than I thought; it was a wicked card for the time; no I'm sure it was replaced by something in the windows box and then i used it to upgrade the s3 in my bsd box; hum. Oh well.

Anyone need an ancient s3 ?

I had the first ever ATI frame buffer card; it cost $600 (this was 25 years ago or so, can't EVEN remember what it was called). I had a succession of S3 "accelerator" cards for several years when I was writing computer reviews for small magazines and started getting review cards constantly. For a long time I never cared about video cards except as a 2D frame buffer. Then, not too long ago, I started getting more powerful 3D cards:

Diamond Stealth
NVidia 6800 Ultra (majorly sucked for the money I spent)
NVidia 7800GT
NVidia 7900GT
NVidia 9600GT
ATI 4850
to what is in my sig.
