Well I'm telling you when I use my GeForce as my 3D card in eq I get lock ups , and when I use my Voodoo as 3d it works great and looks better. This pisses me off cus I love my GeForce.
Maybe you can tell us which driver/settings you are using on your Geforce to get it working flawlessly in evercrack.

Verant, like all wimpy cover-our-butts developers, will NEVER say they "support" anything new that comes out. They just cannot be bothered to try.
That said, just because they don't "support" a particular card does not mean it won't work. I have the GE Force card and it works great in EQ. What Verant is referring to when they say they don't "support" the GE Force is that EQ will not take advantage of many of the benefits of GE Force. The software has to be designed from the ground up to take full advantage of the on-board processor. But the GE Force will work fine with EQ and probably every other game out there.
Buy your card looking to the future. Do NOT buy Voodoo - 3dfx and their "our way or the highway" attitude is finally catching up to them, and games are coming out that no longer support Voodoo. Good. I am fed up with arrogant hardware manufacturers.
Riva and the TNT/GE Force is the way to go. The cards are faster than Voodoo, and games will soon be taking advantage of all the GE Force has to offer.
