Inspired by the "What was your first legit graphics card" thread, I'd like to know what's the oldest graphics card in your possession you're still playing games on. Mine is a Voodoo 4 4500 AGP installed in an offline Win2k box. I use it to play older games in all their Glide enabled glory.

That’d be my 1080 founders edition. Picked it up on launch to replace my aging 2GB MSI lightning 6970s, they just weren’t handling new games at all anymore. Boy what a step up that was.

The oldest is in a retro gaming box, it is a GeForce 4 Ti 4600 128MB AGPx4 coupled to a AMD Athlon XP-M 2500+ (Mobile, Barton).

Pair of XFX 9800GT cards are in my shop computer... not sure why, but they do work fine. Runner up is a liquid-cooled R9 290X.

Older cards, including GT's and HD series ATI cards are all but gone, save for one or two that aren't being used.

HD 7950. Best VC for $200 ever, still chugging along in the wife's PC where it makes a remarkably decent showing clocked up to 1150core, still tangles with most entry level cards today despite being ~6 years old.

I'm running an old Radeon HD 5870. I have a huuuuuuuuge backlog of old games, so it's still good for me, even at 1440p. Really want to upgrade though, heh.

my "HTPC" runs a 8400GS currently, my win98 PC (which I used today) a V4 4500, my secondary PC uses a HD4670
