Anyone still use old graphics cards with no shame?

I've been using the same graphics card i've had since like 2009, so its pretty old, anyone else out there like me?

I still have my first GPU on a shelf, but putting it in a pc would mean I can't open chrome or anything else.

I was using a 760 GTX for a while and before that 560 GTX.  Together I had those two for many years.  What card you have ?  You can sell it on ebay as vintage stuff.

Still using my GTX 760. Nowadays it’s struggling a bit too much to keep up with the frames.

My oldest GPU that's still in use in one of my PCs is a gtx 780 which still games fairly well.  I do have a couple AMD 6870s lying around boxed up somewhere.

My R9 280 is still kicking ass at 1080p, it's 5 years old though so it's not THAT old, but impressive, I still have the box so I can put it back there when I upgrade

I'm using an HD 7770 in one of my PCs. It's garbage, but it fulfills its role of being a display adapter.

Using an N9500GT in a Linux machine/server to be, unless I get my "spare" Z800 running then the card will be in that, still as a server though :)

I used a GTX 280 for a while when my 1070Ti crapped out, and I was actually surprised by how little fan noise it made. I use it as a backup/test card now.
