GTX 1060 in a laptop. I still have it.
rx580. still have it on top of a shelf.
I have no idea what i had in my earliest PCs, but the first 3d graphics card was the 3dfx Orchid Righteous 3d.
GTX750ti>GTX1070>RX6800
3dfx voodoo 3 3000, with its whopping 16MB of VRAM.
It ran Unreal Tournament like a charm. Playing CTF on dialup though was not always great though..

I'm amazed at how many people remember the hardware they purchased 30 years ago.
If you hold onto your cards for 6-7 years, that's only around 5 cards.
Mine goes:
- RTX 4070
- GTX 1080
- GFX 5200 (I think?)
- (The Playstation 2 years)
- (The Playstation years)
- 3dfx Voodoo
Yeah I need to check every time which one I have. And I built my PC myself so it's not that I would have no idea lol
You never forget your first.
Oh man, talk about bringing me back in time. My first card was a voodoo 2.
Riva TNT2
Trident VGA?
I got a 3DFX voodoo as soon as they came out. GL quake was mind-blowing.
I bought a Riva TNT
Then a GeForce 2
Then a Radeon 9000
Then for a bunch of years I just moved into laptop after laptop with discrete GPUs.
Now I still have a 1080 and a 2070 doing a little bit of light AI work and video transcoding for me. But I'm still relying on crappy laptop GPUs for all my gaming. They're good enough.
I got a 3Dfx from a computer fair in Liverpool just so I could play Quake 2 CTF, it was absolutely mind blowing not even an understatement.
I was rocking Geeforce 2 and Soundblaster AWE 32. Good timesπ
3dfx Voodoo2, followed by a Riva tnt2. Good times were had.
I believe I had the Riva tnt2. After that upgrading to the original GeForce 256. Was on my Intel Celeron 300A that you could overclock to a whopping 450mhz!
I had an ATI all in wonder 9600. That card was very unique because it also had a built in TV tuner and AV capture card that could turn your PC into a DVR of sorts. It went into an agp slot before PCIe was a thing.
It was a shiny EGA card.
On an 8-bit ISA bus, with a whopping 64kB of VRAM. It could display an amazing 16 colours on one screen.
My friend who had a CGA card was so jelly with his four eye-soaring neon colours.
If we're talking accelerated graphics, I bought a voodoo 2 with 8mb of RAM which linked up to my ATI Mach 64 2d-card.

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.
An Nvidia GeForce 6200. It could run assassin's creed, the first one.
A Matrox Millennium.
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
Nvidia Riva TNT, because the onboard graphics were only going to play EverQuest (beta) and Rogue Squadron like a painful slideshow, if at all.

Voodoo 2 baybeeee
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.
Intel HD
Nvidia GeForce 8400gs
Went great with my duo core π₯² for that buttery smooth 30fps
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.
Riva TNT 16MB, brand name Elsa, card called Erazor.
First custom pc I got had a NVIDIA 6600 gt
Voodoo Banshee, so I could play Quake, Unreal and Deus Ex.
Gtx 1050ti, great card loved it
That was the second card I got and it set a high standard for me lol
7950 gx2
Ahhhhh, back when GFX Box Art was better than the video game box art on the shelf adjacent

A VGA card. In an IBM PS/2.
The first 3D accelerator card I ever had was a Voodoo 2 of some variety.
I feel like so many of the asklemmy questions are covert methods to profile users, so I never give real answers.
