The EQ client doesn't handle widescreen resolutions properly. The game was built around the 4:3 aspect ratio, as you deviate from this things start to get.. odd.

16:10 appears to be optimal, 16:9 starts to get a little eh.. and anything beyond 16:9 you start to lose a tremendous amount of vertical view.

So to answer your question - there is no "max" resolution. It will max out on whatever your display(s) max out at. The real question is 'at what point does it become shitty', and that point is anything beyond 16:9 IMO.

So run EQ in a window, try to work out a 16:10 or 16:9 resolution (basically anything that fits your vertical pixel amount), and have some space on the sides for vent/ts/whatever.

Good luck
