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.
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..

GTX750ti>GTX1070>RX6800
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
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.

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 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.
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.
A Matrox Millennium.
An Nvidia GeForce 6200. It could run assassin's creed, the first one.
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.
Voodoo Banshee, so I could play Quake, Unreal and Deus Ex.
First custom pc I got had a NVIDIA 6600 gt
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.
