I think it was the MX440SE, found FM while looking for benches for my "top end" PC World purchase, then wondered why it sucked so badly, the guys on here told me that the SE wasn't Special Edition or Super Excellent but meant it was about half the card of the 440 [surrender]

Little did I know a few short years later I'd be soldering pots to my brand new, "L" configuration 9500np, flashing bios's and unlocking CPU's by blowing the connection between 2 points with 2 pins soldered to a 9v battery, ahh, good times.

Hella good times.

Joined up with a 3dfx banshee humming along with a 500mhz Pentium2.
Came here because I had tried a demo of 3dmark 99.
Stayed here because everyone was so helpful, and there wasnt any feelings of negativity, regardless of attitudes, everyone just tried to mesh.

EDIT: When I started really becomming an active member and chatting on irc, was when macci/dj were trying to break "10k" I dont remember in which 3dmark though....when was that?
Those were good times. I believe that was 3dm2k1. Afterwards we were all building "10k rigs".
