Thread 105958751

Which GPU do you consider as legendary?

My HD4870, still have it.

>>105958760
You're a Linux user I imagine?

Riva TNT2 Ultra

>>105958786
Nope, Windows user since ms-dos and windows 98 se.
I should have clarified, the HD4870 is stored, my current gpu is a gtx 4060

>>105958751 (OP)
750ti
Rx480
1050ti
1060 6gb
1080
3060 12gb
3060ti
7900gre
4070ti super
9070xt

Amd 6850
I haven't enjoyed vidya as much as I did back then
Funny enough it still works fine, I have it on a Linux computer and I literally have never done any maintenance on it besides dust cleaning
Insane how that shit still works with no issues whatsoever

>>105958809
>HD4870
By curiosity, which edition did you have?

>>105958760
oh yeah i used to have one of those. it used to get to 120°C and crash all the time. i got a 3rd party cooler for it and it worked fine after that.

>>105958823
I have an intellivision that still works and its from like 1980

>rx 5700 xt
>rx 6600
two goats

>>105958829
This one
>>105958836
Weird, I used it for about 10 years, never went past 65°C, only to 75°C when using furmark

>>105958751 (OP)
GTX 750 Ti, base PS4 graphics power when it came out. still doable as a low end card, the only hiccup is the lack of VRR support. has enough firepower for all my gaymer and workstation needs. using it feels like living my daily life in some ancient ruins that were built by master monks a millennium ago and it's amazing.

>>105958916
I had a 760 for like 6 years and only quit it because it started benchmarking at 2%, performing extremely poorly even for a 760. I just bought a 1050ti to replace it.

>legendary cards
>Zoomers posting shit released in the last decade
Cringe

>>105958751 (OP)
Honorary. An absolute tractor of a GPU when released.

Terrible thread full of zoomer filth.

480s

>>105958751 (OP)
Pascal was a meme
>>105958846
no

>>105958975
I used an alienware with that mobile gpu version once, 1920x1200 screen, was so surreal back in the day, played portal flawlessly

>>105958939
>it started benchmarking at 2%
Might you be able to elaborate?
>>105959034
>Pascal was a meme
>no
Why?

>>105958751 (OP)
I loved my 9800 Pro AIW, the tuner was madness for a freshman dorm dweller but I coveted my friend's 5900 Ultra

>>105958751 (OP)
HD3850 since it was the only card that could carry my shitty AGP-only PC though the late 2000's until I could finally switch to PCI-E

>>105959072
I overclocked and abused it for years with poor airflow and never reapplied thermal paste or did anything but clean it. I benchmarked with afterburner and with intelvidia users benchmark and it was performing in the 2nd percentile for the card and artifacting all the time.

>>105958846
The 3060 12gb has held up better than the 6600

>>105958870
i think it was mostly the case and the fact that i used to have my pc in one of those ikea desks that had like the computer hole things.

>>105958751 (OP)
8800GTX

>>105959135
Still your numbers are bullshit, 4870 tjmax was 105°C, if it even reached that temp the card would shut down and your system would be turned off.

>>105959072
>Why?
overrated. White educated men went from maxwell to turing or bought a vega 56.
>>105959134
As has the 2060 6gb, because rdna shouldn't exist

>>105959153
very possible that i am miss remembering something from 2009 my friend

>>105958751 (OP)
8800GT with the G92 core comes to mind

>>105959176
Fine enough, sorry anon.
I had this case with the 4870

If the name of your first gpu didn't start with RTX you're too old to be here

>>105959232
You have to be 18 to use 4chan

>>105959232
My first graphics card was 128mb

>>105959232
kek, shut the fuck off sprout, let me play on my amiga some games

>>105959217
found my whole build and how much it cost.
I think i cheaped out on that mobo and it was a pain in the butt if i recall correctly
i still have that HDD and maybe the ram too

GTX 970 because even with the 3.5GB meme it still was good
and NVIDIA's lawyers mailed me a check for $30 for the settlement lol

>>105959288
My nigga I had the Q9550 too

>>105958751 (OP)
The 4090. The best investment I ever made. Never regret for even just a moment.

>>105959313
The 900s were such a shitshow they made the 10 series good. Thank you for the 1050ti/1060 6gb/1080ti. Your sacrifice was not in vain

the ones I've had
any other answer is wrong.

>>105959318
that fucker might have been the most expensive cpu i ever got

What gpu let you max Crysis (if any) back from 2007 to 2009?

>>105959388
None, unless you consider 1280x1024 the maxium resolution

>>105959351
I also bought a 970 on release and a used 1070 ti to replace it
970 wasnt that good, I wish I had gone AMD then
Now I'm on 9070 xt

>>105959422
I am 760>1050ti>3060 12gb>9070xt

>>105959388
Lmao
And don't forget how it was horribly CPU optimized

>>105959388
Very high? Nah, the top post show probably high

>>105959232
your moms pussy is too old, you fucking faggot

>>105959398
>>105959447
>>105959448
I never had a gaming PC in those years, what was the first gpu that could max Crysis?

8800gt. it took only one slot; i built a shuttle with it. then i went to a lan party and a dude bought it two times the price i had paid.

>>105959160
>RDNA shouldn't exist
Why?

>>105959533
Because Vega was computing perfected.

Any workstation GPU at this present moment

3dfx voodoo.
no contest.

>>105958751 (OP)
Matrox

>>105958751 (OP)
>stagnation is legendary

You must think i5 2500 is legendary as well?

>>105958751 (OP)
Radeom 9800pro with 256mb ram!
By far

>>105959477
Probably the 7970

>>105958751 (OP)
The 9700 Pro. I had a 9200...

9600 pro
8800 gtx
5770hd
560ti

price balloned too much after that and even though I owned a 1080ti it was 850 fucking euros and I wouldn't recommend it

the MX130 was good

>>105958751 (OP)
Hard to pick
3dfx voodoo banshee/ III 2000 (glide was superior to Direct3D)
GeForce 256 (first hw t&l)
Radeon 8500LE(punching above its weight)/9500/9800pro
GeForce 6600gt (btfos 9800xt)
Radeon x800 (so many versions of it)
Modern GPUs can't qualify for legendary. There is no competition since the leader is still holding back.

>>105958760
These were incredible, especially the 1gb

You could flash 6970 firmware on a 6950 and unlock the extra shader cores, which I did, so it was probably that guy for me just cause of that (and it destroyed at the time anyways)

I feel like you need to consider everything that had 2 GPUs on a single board.
