My AMD Radeon HD 7870
I only had a BE cube for about a month in January 2014 but I have been cloud mining since November 2013.
7970 GPU
Sapphire 5850 2011.10
Sapphire R9 290, the best GPU for mining
My laptop, but its sure is slow as hell... not even 0.001 bitcoin earned.
A rig that was supporting 20GH/s , not to bad i though 
I did some cpu mining on a work laptop to test back in July, 2011 then I went home and started mining with my Reference HD5850 which is still running like a champ, though now with an aftermarket cooler.
1 x 7950 March 2013. I started because I wanted to see how this mining business worked and how profitable it actually was. I then got very much into it!
ATI 5830 in June? 2013, had to start mine altcoins and exchange to Bitcoin. Wish I knew about Bitcoin sonner, I could mine a lot of Bitcoins with this GPU
My first Miner is my computer, i got around 3.2 khs.
Then i purchase 2x270 got around 650 khs
Then i purchase 2x270 got around 650 khs
Started 2/2013
EVGA 780i FTW motherboard
QX9650 LGA 775 CPU
3 x Gigabyte 7970
1 x Sapphire 7970
Got a whopping 2 GH/s mining BTC. Usually got .007 BTC per round on Slush.
Now I have 2.7 TH/s of assorted Bitfury, Ants, and a Dragon 1 TH/s. Also have some Gridseed units doing scrypt, soon to be 12 MH/s.

My low-end AMD card, and I quit mining after a day when I realized the bitcoin it generated is less than the electricity cost.
2011 july mid month. > Dopeass board < GA-EP45-UD3P (rev. 1.6) with a 5830 then two 5830's, same PSU I still have, a PC power & cooling Silencer 750 EPS12V< cant wait to offload this, to many cables, need new tech modular. [No smoking environment]
ATI 4870 back in early 2011!
My CPU at 1.5mh/s, was mining for fun back then and had no idea he price would skyrocket. I believed that the value would definitely rise but now so fast 
Started mining on my two 5750s at 360ish MH/s in early 2013. Stopped it when new worthwhile games came out and I favored plaing them to mining :p. Now jumped back in with two antminer U2s.
I bought an antminer USB 1.6 Ghs Febr 2014 mining up to today steady 1.8 (overclocked)
My first rig was about 100 bots on a botnet!
