Disassembled boards: More than 40 ancient graphics cards stripped down to the bare PCB
Hello there... :)
Okay, I usually post reviews and current hardware articles here, but this time I found something in our archive that I personally think is pretty cool.
We went through the PCGH picture archive and put together a gallery of more than 40 graphics cards stripped down to the bare PCB. Some of them are old enough that I did not even actively experience them when they were current, which makes looking at the board designs even more interesting now.
The gallery includes cards like the 3dfx Voodoo 5 6000, Geforce 7900 GX2, Radeon HD 2900 XT, Radeon HD 5970, Asus Mars and several other AGP, early PCIe and dual-GPU designs.
Which of these cards did you actually own back then? And which older GPU PCB design do you think aged the best or looks the most ridiculous today?
