What graphic card do you own?

I have a HD6990 4GB, its quite old, but it can be very powerful at times, ACU on very high at 30 fps, but is a dual card and Crossfire seems to only work intermittently with latest games. I am considering a gtx 970, but its a lot of money, especially after getting defrauded by a guy selling a 690.
 
I've got a GTX 550Ti. I haven't played any graphic intensive games since Skyrim which it coped with fine.
 
Theres a GTX 740m in this laptop. This is the first computer I've had with a decent graphics card and I'm really impressed, its just like gaming on a console.
 
I don't play games on my five-ish year old laptop, but have just checked and it has an Nvidia GeForce GT 540 M. It looks like it has 1GB of memory.
 
I've got 4 in 3 machines capable of playing games. On account of having two kids who play.
PC in lounge has a HD7950 which is massive, power hungry and hot and noisy.
PC in study has a 750ti SC which is small and quiet and efficient and plays most things just fine.
Laptop with SLI 755 somethings in it, which again plays most things fine as long as there is an SLI profile available.
Would not go back to AMD again as had so many driver problems.
 
geforce 660Ti
Will replace it when VR comes to town, with whatever's the "not insane" nvidia card at the time. I have a small case, so heat is important and nvidia's cards are considerably more efficient, not to mention the higher quality drivers
 
hd 7790, same gpu as in the xbox one apparently. Fairly good for hd gaming. Was kind of restricted by my old low capacity psu, and when I was buying the hd 7790 was better for power usage than the Nvidia rival card.

Am feeling a very strong urge to upgrade from my 7 year old i7 920 box (it's a dell motherboard so I can't over clock), I dithered over a 'scratch and dent' dell outlet alienware area 51 r2 box (5820, 16 gb ram 120 gb ssd 2 tb sata, gtx 980, 1.5k psu for 1150 quid roughly) for too long and it went, which I'm a bit pissed off about (was slightly out of budget, but it's about 500-600 cheaper than similar systems).
 
Sapphire HD 7850 2GB, bought almost 3 years ago.
Does me fine for Elite: Dangerous, about the only game I have time to play, though I'd probably look at upgrading if/when I get a higher res monitor.
 
AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series and it's the only thing that ever causes my machine to blue screen. Worst drivers ever!

Same here, though apparently the Omega drivers are a bit better, but Crossfire is really poor.

which 970 do posters have, noise would be an issue for me.

MSI GeForce GTX 970 GAMING TWIN FROZR V OC 4GB GDDR5

I LIKE TO SHOUT MY TECHNICAL TERMS HOPE THAT'S OK

I DO SAY THE NAME GeForce WITH A DEGREE OF MODERATION THOUGH

AT! LEAST! I'M! NOT! YAHOO! EH!?
 
Also, unlike the name, it's quite good for noise; moderate for heat, better than some old cards. Periodically taking the heatsink/fans off and giving it a clean probably helps on both counts, which I usually neglect to do.
 
gtx 770 oc 2gb ddr5 ( Gigabyte windforce )

had it over a year and it still plays pretty much everything ( bar GTA V ) at 1080p ultra
 
MSI GTX 770 TwinFrozr, bought recently when the 7 series price dropped just after the 9 series was released. Replaced a 4890 which had lasted well but for a replacement fan, it was showing its age.
