Geforce 2 MX 400.

A few weeks of lurking around i finally learned the truth about just how downright crap my videocard was (I was clueless why it couldnt run Giants: Citizen Kabuto) even if it was "Geforce 2"

With my new found knowledge, I gathered up all the money I saved then I bought a Geforce 3 ti200.. and then became a member here.

PC Gaming was never the same since [yes]

TNT2 Pro i think? or ye ti4200. Card would OC like crazy. Had the 64mb version

zdlupikkkdi 06-13-2011 07:01 PM

Geforce 2 MX 200 then upgraded to an MX 400 [surrender]

bawayTeen 06-13-2011 07:04 PM

I think it was a Geforce 256, not sure though

3DfX Voodoo 3 3000 in 2000.

Biashpainabix 06-13-2011 07:51 PM

I was on a GF2MX 32MB at the time (AMD TB 850MHz OCed to 1200MHz pencil mod \o/)

I think I got here with a Voodoo2. Shortly after I got a Duron 750 with a GeForce2 MX. Haven't had a non-GeForce since, actually!

JeremyBalll 06-13-2011 08:26 PM

I'm not quite sure..

Either a Guillemot Riva TNT2 N64 or ATi Rage Fury Maxx...

LianneForbess 06-13-2011 08:32 PM

Voodoo 3 3000. Classic.

Voodoo 2 SLI, oldskool...http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/wink1.gif

When I first came across MO and started lurking (ala PC Gamer's Summer 1999 System Build Guide's included disc of 3DMark 99 Max), I was sporting a TNT2 Ultra 32MB, 2x Monster 3D II 12MBs in SLI, and a Creative Dxr3 decoder... Yeah, from top down I looped through 4 cards! http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/cool1.gif

When I finally joined, I was sporting a GF2 GTS 32MB, having migrated on through a GF DDR in between. 3DMark 2001 finally got me to join! [thumbup]

Geforce 3 Ti200 in my dell pc lol (1.8ghz p4 willy)

exchpaypalgold 06-14-2011 12:37 AM

First video card I had... was whatever was "powering" the green Hercules Monochrome screen on my IBM XT PC.

When I joined MO in 2000... I must've had the Geforce 2 GTS. Or possibly still my Orchid Righteous 3D (probably not anymore).

VFOVkZBj 06-14-2011 12:47 AM

Looks like I've got the distinction of having the crappiest gfx card when joining MO http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/biggrin1.gif

I actually replaced that Voodoo 3 with a TNT2 Ultra from Creative for its 32bit color rendering ability and 32MB of VRAM as a nice bonus.

Before that, i had two Creative Voodoo 2's SLI from Creative anbd i still have one of them here somewhere.

Geforce3 Ti200 [yes]

Remember thinking how insane the DX8 demo in 3DMark01 looked with a whopping 30 FPS and being able to play UT @ 1280x1024 with the GF3 and 1 GHz Athlon. Genuine, eye popping awe at how powerful it was. That was coming from a system with a 350 MHz K6-2 and Voodoo Banshee.

Oh nostalgia http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/laugh1.gif

Oh that 1GHz Athlon was a barrier braker...[thumbup]

Never had one, I had a P3 800Mhz and upgraded later on to P3 tualatin 1,2Ghz...

Barrier breaker in terms of heat output. I had a 1GHz and the cooler was only a 40mm and sounded like a hairdryer http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/laugh1.gif

Computers were so much noisier back then... at least ones that are running at stock. I couldn't go back. Silence is beautiful. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/smile1.gif
