To me personally, AMD drivers have always been near perfect. The only complaint I have with them right now, is that GTA IV doesn't play smoothly regardless of the settings. That's one game out of hundreds that I own, so I'm not that bothered by it.
Nvidia on the other hand, its pretty sad that all my Nvidia cards are STILL stuck on 266.58 because anything newer causes crashing.

I agree completely, same case right here. i've had two nVidia computers, both have been nothing but trouble with the drivers, having constant crashes etc. plus my 6970s' , and my 5650 or whatever it is in the other desktop have never had an issue? maybe it's just old and overplayed by now?
