I don't really know if someone gonna be interested, but hey we are enthusiasts right ? Feel free to post yours :)
 
My first ''modern'' GPU. One of the grandads of GeForce graphics - NVIDIA GeForce4 MX440 128MB

 

That stylish purple PCB doe :D
 

 

Then I steped my game up :D Sapphire ATI Radeon X1650 Pro 256MB

 

 

Both still works just fine :) Although more impresive is that i have somewhere fully functional commodore (I don't really recall the model)

My 2001 Dell Lattitude D630 is the oldest PC I have ever owned. It is almost 9/10th as old as I am however it no longer functions. It lasted me a long time though, it even survived the network card PCB melting out the exhaust.

I have a Geforce 7300 LT in an old Dell. We also have a gateway with some old nvidia card, but I don't know the specifics.

I have a PNY Geforce 5200FX in an Pentium4 Sony Vaio from 2002 my parents bought. I didn't really play games on the PC when I was kid, opting for my good old Nintendo. I did like the Lego PC games though, being a huge Lego fan, so I would play those and integrated graphics were always enough (though just barely). Suddenly my little brother decided to buy the first Lego Star Wars, and it wouldn't install without a dedicated video card! None of us really knew anything about computer hardware so my dad went to Staples of all places and asked them. He came home with an $80 5200FX (and as Linus says, a total rip-off for the money looking back). We figured out how to put it in and got Lego Star Wars! It was like 20fps as I remember, but that video card introduced me to PC gaming as I got KoTOR, some other Star Wars games, the original CoD. I even got BF2 to work on it at like 15fps.
