Something similar. It was ISA, but I got rid of it. For now, my worst is an old 1994 PCI card.

Trident PCI video card.
Had a whole 8MB of RAM!

(Does Intel Extreme Integrated count? That was pretty crappy)

Besides the onboard Intel chip I had on my very first PC (a Dell of some sort) I would have to say a FX5200 that always refused to work properly, and when it did, performance was terrible. I think it had a defective cooling unit.

Besides various onboards throughout the years, probably the Asus MX420. Ran Need for Speed III beautifully, though.
