This has been discussed many many times in past. I suggest you search in
google groups for this topic.

From personal experience, ATI and Omega are both EXCELLENT drivers. Omega's
enable better overclock support for some chips (SE versions) and support
Mobility series. Which is why I use them on my m10pro laptop.
Omega often have better tweaks for games, so they tend to increase
performance or IQ (or both) as opposed to ATI ones..

Lets hear some comments about ATI over Omega Drivers or vice versa.
Thanks,


From what I see here, the Omegas seem to have less install/upgrade
problems.


I would think there's probably a lot more people here using stock Ati
rather than Omega drivers, so we should expect to see more problems.


Agreed, 90% will do a default install and leave it that way forever.

Pure guess is, per user of either, they probably have equivalent
levels of problems.


Disagree, in 7 years of using Omega's I see almost no posts ever with
problems attributed to Omega's so equivalence no, I don't think so.

There was a spot in time 3 or 4 years ago when ATi tried to shut down
the ' God-Bless-You-Man. At that time ATi insisted that the CPl be re
instituted into his driver set[s] ( he did not have an ATi CPl ) and
this did cause problems. This for historians is the only time I recall
problems with Omega's.
