Holy Mackerel, what an awesome collection! :twitch:

I wish I'd had the space to store my old stuff, I';d have loved to have kept my 7950 GX2 and HD5970 ... but.....oh well, c'est la vie. :shadedshu:

Seeing the HD 5970 and HD5870 sure takes me back, had those two cards in TriFire configured rig back then.

5970 + 5870 tri fire is one of my favorite obscure ways to run those cards. I set them up on my test bench and play BFBC2 in Tri fire about once a year.

Overall shot of my collection, but a really old pic. its actually really hard to get them all out for a single shot like this. it takes hours. collection has grown a lot since this was taken.

Got around to taking an updated picture of my collection. Its already outdated, but oh well.

Think it's pretty painfully clear where my biases / preferences are.

I tend to fancy planar myself. One of these days I may sell all my dynamics in one go and try to experience a proper high end planar. The Hifiman Ananda I reviewed on launch from a review copy Hifiman sent me... omg the female vocals on it were 10/10. Only issue was the headband didn't fit my head right, even on the shortest setting, guess my mom dropped me when I was a kid lol

Are you referring to the green xfx cards? Those are GTX260 / GTX280/ GTX285. Need at least 2 or 3 of each for SLi

My mistake. :ohwell:

The 200 series had so many skus. 250, 260, 260 core 216, 275, 280, 285, 295.

You could say, "I got con-sku-sed" for a moment.
:roll:

mxthunder · Mar 30, 2024

Took some pics of my XFX cards for a facebook group. thought i would post them here. XFX was always my favorite. I lusted after those 200 series cards bad back in the day, finally saved up enough for a GTX260 c216 in early 2009. I had a reference style XFX GTX275 but sold it, I regret it, bad. The reference ones are super rare.

About 2/3 of my figures the rest are still in boxes from the move to the new house and I need more display cases. I also need to better arrange them but too lazy right now lol.

They're from games you've played, like a reminder ...
or just because nice characters ?

mxthunder · Mar 30, 2024

If I had a collection of figures - it would look like that. I like your "taste"

Wow! You have me beat if you really have over 400 cards! I think my totals are ~84 PCIe cards and ~30 AGP cards. Only a handful dont work.
Nice collection!

GamerGuy · Apr 1, 2024

@MaexxDessign , Geez Louise, that's a whole lotta cards!!! :eek:

Seeing that Hercules labeled card takes me back, I think I'd upgraded to a Hercules 9800 Pro from a 9700Pro....other brands that've gone the way of the Dodo is Albatron (GeForce FX 6800 GT) and Abit (GeForce FX 5900 OTES, love the design).

You should start a Youtube channel, testing old and new games on those cards, or at least lend them to some youtuber that dose

You definitely have the more valuable collection.
I guess we can both wallpaper our walls with graphics cards.

With this amount of graphics cards I could do that once a week for years.
But others can do that better.
I recommend the "PixelPipes" and "philscomputerlab" channels:

Thanks!

It is hard for me to watch certain tech youtubers, especially when it comes to retro/collectible stuff. I tend to get upset if they get even the smallest detail or fact wrong.

Recently aquired a Titan Black and a 2080 super. I have been wanting to complete collection of all 3 2000 series x80 cards for a while now.
I feel like my titan collection is complete for a while as well - I actually have 2x Titan Xp may swap one for a Titan X Pascal but that card seems boring because its basically same as 1080Ti. Titan V and Titan RTX one day...
