The Most Influential 3D Graphics Cards in History

Gameplayer has gone live with an in-depth feature that chronicles the history of the graphics card, highlighting the very best and worst examples and detailing how each acted to influence the paths of both technology and gaming.

"So we're going to present you with a list that encompasses not only newcomers and powerhouses of the present day, but the cards that started it all, the ones that existed back in the chaotic technology fray of the 90s. We won't get through every single one because there's just too many, and although we'd like to take time out at length to pay homage to the GLINT or Number Nine's woefully expensive 'Imagine 128', we've had to cherry pick some of the highlights (and a couple of lowlights) from the evolution of 3D graphics that are worth celebrating and respecting geek style."
