Jumping from Voodoo 2 to GeForce 256 was the greatest jump I ever made. Since then, no hardware upgrade have had larger impact on my performance.

it has to be my ATI Radeon 64mb VIVO that I bought almost three years ago to take the place of a Voodoo 5 5500 that disappeared in 3dfx's warranty department. I eventually got two Voodoo 5 cards back from them (!) but because of the vastly superior image quality of the ATI I never used the 3dfx cards again. With the latest ATI drivers it still looks great on a a 21" Sony GDM-F500R...

Voodoo 3500 tv, best card I ever had, in fact I still use it in my secondary machine to record some tv stuff with it.
Bought it brand new when it first came out, still have the "upgrade to Unreal Tournament for free" coupon and never used it for reasons I cant explain lol

Oh man. lets see. When i first was getting into PCs, I purchased an IBM Aptiva P1 133. It had like a 1GB HDD and 8MB Ram with a Trident 1MB Video, not to mention that ultra fast 28.8 Modem. That set it all off for me. My next 'big' pc purchase was a custom system from a local pc shop. It was a Celleron 366, with 64MB Ram and a whopping integrated SiS 8MB Video (shared) that rulled. But as far as best GXF card experiance, it has to be my 'old' Ti4600. I had seen it on TechTV and all i talked about was getting the LeadTech WinFast Ti4600 w/128MB video. I read every article in print and on the web for juicy tidbits of info, pics, and benches. Finnaly i had ammased my cash (400+$) and purchased a BFG-Tech Asylum Ti4600 from my local BestBuy. When I got it home, I had to take a break from my card installation cause i was physically shaking from the excitement. I gamed, and benched all day and night, and when it was time for me to sleep...i gamed some more. Of cource that card didnt go into my last described system, I had a new one at the time but because this is a gfx discussion i didnt want to go into all the details of my pc specs. That Ti card did however replace a GF4 MX440.
