    Re: So who's running the oldest GPU?

    God, I wish I could remember what my first card was. I remember I put it in a Tiny PC Pentium 1 233mhz at university. A friend bought Unreal, but his PC was not a pentium, so he couldn't' run it, and we installed it on my machine.

    I STILL love the graphics on Unreal 1. They blew us away then. Up till that point, it'd been Redneck Rampage and Blood all the way.

    TNT2. Nice. Thanks. That was, I believe, what I may have had. 1995. Sound about right?

    In 1995 it would of been a NV1 on a Diamond Edge 3D which was quite frankly rubbish, damn I feel old now and look how far Nvidia has come.

    Oldest thing in day to day use is a 6600GT, which has gone from my gaming rig to numerous work Athlons, p3's and 4's and now resides in a core2 comp basically to save using IGP RAM.
