I don't remember the names or even brands of most of the GPUs I've owned.

 

Several ISA GPUs, then a couple PCI (non-express) GPUs, then a GeForce MX 4000 and another unknown AGP GPU, then some unknown 4MB VRAM PCI GPU pulled from a workstation, (yes, a downgrade, from when the system died completely) then an ATI HD 5470, then laptops... HD 5450M, and GT 630M. After that, an integrated GPU, the Vega 11 in a 2400G. Now I'm using a 5700XT, and planning on the 6800XT.

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X Cooler: Arctic Liquid Freezer II 120mm AIO with push-pull Arctic P12 PWM fans RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V 4x8GB 3600 16-16-16-30

Motherboard: ASRock X570M Pro4 GPU: ASRock RX 5700 XT Reference with Eiswolf GPX-Pro 240 AIO Case: Antec P5 PSU: Rosewill Capstone 750M

Monitor: ASUS ROG Strix XG32VC Case Fans: 2x Arctic P12 PWM Storage: HP EX950 1TB NVMe, Mushkin Pilot-E 1TB NVMe, 2x Constellation ES 2TB in RAID1

Starting round about 2008 with HD2600 in a Toshiba Sat Pro 200 

- Played Crysis at 1400 x 900 everything low, on a good day reached high teens FPS (nearly 18)

- Still have this and it's working really well (with Vista Ultimate)

 

From 2010, with desktop, in order:

ASUS HD4870

2 x ASUS HD4870 in Crossfire

Gainward GTX295 (Blower type) - died after 3 weeks

Gainward GTX295 (Centre fan) - replaced above card on RMA

EVGA GTX480 Superclock

EVGA GTX670 FTW
