Thread Starter 
Which is better your basic run of the mill drivers that you would DL for Nvidia or ATI or the modified drivers?

it kinda depends on your opinion. Modified drivers usually are a little bit faster because they optimize them to run faster. but i would say that sonetimes there are more problems with the modified drivers(because they are beta). i am very happy with my omega drivers. they work great

You can still use ATI Tool, and the Omega (which I use and love) come with a version of Rad-Linker built in.

I think modified drivers are alot better than the drivers nvidia or ati give because the modified drivers im currently using gave me a 2000 gain in AQ3 and i was able to overclock my card a bit more.
