Graphics Cards recited from memory IN ORDER, I won't remember all of them but I will try. Cards in bold means I have owned one. I love video cards each one improves upon the last, offering new features and faster framerates. The first video card I bought was a VGA 2 MB VESA card, and the first graphics accelerator I bought was the 3dfx Voodoo Banchee.
3DFX: 1995-2000
Voodoo, banchee, 2, 3000, 3500, 4, 5, 6
ATI: 1997-present
Rage, Radeon, Radeon 8500, 9500, 9600 pro, 9700 pro, 9800 pro*, x800, x800 pro x1600, x1650, x1800, x1900, x1900XTX, HD 3800, HD 4800
(Wow I am terrible at remembering ATI, their naming scheme is harder to remember and I never owned as many of their cards)

Note: this is mostly in terms of when they were released, but a few are in order of performance, for example; the Geforce 3 ti 200 came out after the geforce 3 but was actually slower.... Heh, I had a friend that "Upgraded" from the geforce 3 to the Geforce 3 ti 200, what an idiot... I may have missed a few this is reciting from memory hehe.
