Please do as you are told and read the OFFICIAL gentoo website?

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/nvidia-guide.xml

Which clearly states: 

-----begin snip---------
Older cards such as the GeForce 3 or GeForce 4 series require the 96.x
drivers. For these cards, you should mask >=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-97.00 
in your /etc/portage/package.mask file. This will prevent newer 
versions of the driver which are incompatible with your card from being 
installed. 
-----end snip-----------

This information is also found on nVidia's website. 

I have the (almost) exact same card as you do. It should not be a
problem.
