Cheers Monkey ;)

I've been quite lucky with my 9800 Pro and havent really expeirenced any of the problems in games like COD that have been reported with the earlier drivers.

[Grand Monkey]

no i havn't had any problems with my 9800pro either, guess we are just the lucky ones. no sign of 64bit drivers as yet though, which is a shame. i use omegas optimised drivers anyway, but its usually a week after the official ones that they come out.

What's the big deal with Omega's drivers? Would Radlinker (the OC util I use) still work with them?

[Grand Monkey]

omegas drivers are basically gamers drivers, he uses the cats then mods the .inf file to include settings that provide better image quality in games. it does not increase fps, in fact it will probably produce lower fps. so basically use them if your wanting image quality but stick to the cats if your wanting the fastest fps. Radlinker will work fine with them, in fact i'm pretty sure it used to be bundled in the installer.

Omega drivers based on 4.2 cats are now out. oh and a special version of radlinker is now bundled with it. not sure whats special about it, will have to wait till i get home to see.
