Microsoft’s Direct3D team have covered some of their office walls with the hundreds of graphics cards they’ve gathered while working on the 3D API. That’s 402 graphics cards spanning 35 years of technohistory. If you get misty-eyed at the sight of a Voodoo card, shed a tear for the Matrox Parhelia, marvel at graphics cards the size of surfboards, or are still bitter that Direct3D beat many other APIs, you might enjoy a look. It is a shame that they don’t have more photos and they’re all so small, but I imagine that won’t put off the type likely to scream “OH MY GOD I FORGOT ABOUT BITBOYS.”
