Well, i guess if you mean first GPU i suppose it would be this old generic PCI (it may have been ISA, I forget...) graphics card that was capable of 256 colors.

Yes, this was back in the windows 3.0 days and 256 colors was a big deal for some applications to run.

My first 3D accelerated card was an Nvidia TNT 2 RIVA 16MB AGP but my first true "Gaming" quality GPU was an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro with 256MB of VRAM. I still have that baby for nostalgia sake.

The 9800 Pro was a beast for its time and its a shame ATI isn't like it once was.
