Who do you use?
In light of the new 3d ring, many an issue has been brought out to those who use ATI cards. A quote in a post had said "1/2 the people that play EQ are probably using ATI." So this set a question in motion...

1) STB Velocity 2d and 2x 3dfx blackmagic 3d
2) 3dfx Voodoo 2 ?
3) 3dfx Voodoo 3 3500
4) GeForce 2 MX440 64m
5) GeForce 3 64m
6) GeForce 4 ti4200 128m

I just switched from a Nvidia GeForce4 MX to a Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 AGP (256 mb) and the target ring STILL is not showing up. I've very frustrated... almost to the point of quitting EQ altogether in order to play a game that's not set in the stone-age with buggy graphics.

Nvidia FX 5900 pro 256mb. The thing is a monster but works well.
I originally got the ATI 9800 pro 256 but I was getting some artifacting in the video in EQ and Battlefield 1942. I used the det destroyer to make sure all the old det residue was gone but it didnt help.
So I returned the card and got the 5900 and I've been very happy.
Then in my other systems I have...
Geforce 4 TI4600 128mb
Geforce 3 TI 500 64mb
ATI Radeon 9200? Mobility 64mb (laptop)

You probably need to copy the target ring files to your UI direcotry.
You might also need to turn the 3d Target ring on in the options window.

I have the 128mb ATI 9700 (which I've never had a problem with, at all)... but only because when I bought my Alienware, it was the best card out; nVidia had released their new one yet.
When we ordered my wife's Alienware, we got the 256mb nVidia.
