Pic related, 1070 next to my mx 440. I didn't realize just how many I had until I compiled this list. I may have missed a few but those are all the ones I know are somewhere in my house for now.

Forgot to add, the 480 runs a lot cooler and gives about 10% more frames, so my room is less of an oven, still have an 8350 at 5GHz

Nvidia GT240 AMD HD6670 (was meant to be sent a 6770, swiftly got that corrected) AMD HD6770 AMD HD7950 (got this once Far Cry 3 released and my 6770 wasn't strong enough to handle it. Went from 20fps to 60fps, and that was without updating drivers because I still had no clue about that stuff at the time.) AMD R9 Fury X (Got this on launch day. One of the first ones too.) The Fury X is on a custom loop now, improved temps a lot.
The reason I didn't stick with Nvidia when I got my new PC (back in the GT240->6770 transition) was because it was simply what I'd been recommended and staying with AMD seemed logical since I had no issues. The reason I decided to go Fury X rather than Nvidia was partly because of the misleading advertisement about it being an overclockers dream, but also because Nvidia had already fucked up my opinion of themselves by fucking over the GTX970 and GameWorks. Now they've had the whole async issues (lying about it coming to Maxwell before eventually admitting it won't) and the GTX1060 3gb being cut down from the GTX1060 6gb chip, yet essentially advertised all the same... Oh, and lets not forget G-sync.
I can accept that Lisa Su sold us a lie with the "overclockers dream" crap on the press event. Maybe it was originally going to be - by being lower clocked but allowing for us to go up to 1050mhz. Maybe their experimental cards showed promise and could perhaps hit 1250, but then they found out it wasn't stable or only happened on golden cards and had to pull it back. Whatever it was, it was disappointing, but ultimately, that's the only time in my experience that they've led me to believe they're going to be much better than they really are. At least they never lied for months on end, despite consumers AND publications calling them out on their bullshit.

The only one who said it was great for over clockers was some lackey who was on stage with her. The line was more along the lines of "water cooling, which is great for overclockers". In all honestly it just sounds like some fucking idiot in marketing having no idea the limitations of their own product, Far too common in this industry.

First was an ATI rage 128, 16gb of video memory I believe. First card I bought for myself was a GeForce mx440. I currently have a GeForce 560ti

Actually change the 9500gt to an 8500gt or possibly an 8600gt. Fuck my memory.
Brayden Sanders
You could be right, I don't remember at this point. It is a shame that someone, whoever it was, said it, but its not something that puts me off ever going near AMD again. Also, I kinda knew that going for the Fury X was one of those things you just have to accept the ups and downs of. 14/16nm was already up on the cards (I mean, hell, Maxwell was meant to be 22nm) but being an early adopter of HBM1 and trying to show the industry that I want further advances was important to me. I believe in voting with your wallet, and so I did.

x800pro (pencil modded to xt) x1950pro (was still on agp mobo) 5850 (bought for £200 before the price hike) triX 290 (£215 bargain almost two years ago)
Fucking ati/amd always had the best price/performance at ~£200, but every time I do a build for someone else it's 50/50 geforce/radeon.
What was wrong with the x850xt? I know it was expensive.

I remember it being extremely hot and noisy with one of those pull through coolers plus the performance was really disappointing. Still couldn't play Invisible War on decent setting though that game was a pig.

Stock cooling sucked in shocker. I put an ICEQ II on my x800pro, not a scratch on today's coolers, but still a huge improvement. x800pro's stock which was still single slot at the time.

Bought one of the very first GF2 from some fag on anantech forums who stole some. Fucking thing crashed erry 5 minutes, but it was so fast (at the time) I bought $NVDA and stacked mad paper.

That's a lot of GPUs man. My history: >GeForce GT 8600M >GeForce gtx 965M >r9 290x
At 1080p the 290x is holding out quite well, especially since new games coming out are using dx12/Vulkan. I'll probably hold onto this card for another ~2 years or so until I can also afford to upgrade to 1440p.
huge jump between 9500 and 7850, i was not into games as much but lately i am getting into it and i upgraded my system yesterday. ready for battlefield 1 and cod remastered.
I don't see myself upgrading again for a while. Maybe if the 1080Ti turns out to be great.

my top card would have to be a tie between the 4850 and the 6800gt. 4850 I ran with a +100mhz overclock on the core and 100mhz on the memory and ran it with the single slot cooler for two and a half years... only replacing it because i wanted something new. 6800gt because i kept that card for four years, two years in my main computer, two more years in a secondary and that thing plowed through everything i threw at it. its stock single slot cooler was awful and i remember one day playing bf1942 galactic conquest seeing its core temps hit 103c. i replaced the stock evga cooler with a zalman orb cooler and and the card never went above 55c.
i can easily say with using both amd and nvidia (FAR MORE nvidia) i've never had anymore issues with amd(ati) than I did with nvidia. both their shit stinks equally as bad.
right now i'm running the rx 480 crossfire setup and been enjoying a lot. its been fantastic. brings back the 6950 crossfire days.
