Whats your favourite ever graphics card?

I thought it might be cool to start up a thread where you can post your favourite ever graphics card, wether it be due to looks, performance, performance/price ratio.

My favourite is the one I have right now, the Powercoler HD 5850 PCS+.

I was very lucky to get one from Ravious on here for £62, which considering how it has been so far for me is a complete bargain

It can ply Battlefield 3 on the highest graphical settings, it never goes above 52c whilst playing Battlefield and it is ultra quiet, Apart from the red pcb It is a fantastic card
 
hmm.. I guess I can't really choose on this as the only two aftermarket cards I've owned are a GTX 570 (current) and a EVGA 8800GTS and I think you can guess which one I like more lol. (570 incase you're at a loss)
 
My favourite current card is the HD 7950 since I have one, but my favourite all time card would have to be the 8800GT, held up so well for so many years and generations of cards that nvidia used the chips in.
 
Standard 8800gt = godly for the cost when it came out, and it can still play any game at 1080p with reasonable fps like 5 years on.
 
The HD5770 Hawk because of its AMAZING overclocking, I had 2 of them BOTH hitting 1.1ghz WITH THE STOCK COOLER! then my GTX680 because of its again overclocking 24/7 clocks 1235mhz and benching clock of 1.37ghz.
 
My old 3dfx Voodoo 5500. The original SLI lol still got it somewhere. should realy get benching with it. just need to fined an old lanparty board for some epic nostalgia benching lol.
 
My 6850, it runs everything maxed out apart from a few games like Crysis, Metro and BF3. Well worth the £150 I paid for it almost two years ago, sadly it's getting to the point where I need to upgrade because more and more demanding games are being released.
 
My GTX 690, this card is beautifull and silent and performs wonderfully. Best card (or combo of cards) I have owned so far. I don't think I'll ever sell this.
 
HD 5670 that I'm still using, I've got the sapphire 1GB version, stays really quiet and cool. Maxes out most of the games on 1920X1080p with some tweaking and tuning, I don't mind playing games that run smooth over 30fps on my system....But what's the fun in gaming on the pc if you do not have to tweak and tune coz that's what sets it apart from console gaming and the lovely graphics as well.
