You can always try the 4.2's yourself and then get Omega's. I do that sometimes, but I think I'm stucking with my Omega's 4.1 for a while. They seem to do the job for me.
The only thing I would like from 4.2 is the 3-4% increase in Halo. But, I rarely play it so it doesn't brother me.

With the 4.1's.. I started with ATi's version. Once the Omegas came out I went with them and had a boost in performance. I deceided to try DNA's set and had even a bigger boost. I will try them all! Some people have better luck with different sets but no matter you all do an excellent job and I thank you all.

Same here- I'm using Omega's now- They look great and are silky smooth like butta.
Yes we should refrain from a flame thread- That was just my opinion, and shouldn't be taken for fact- although you could if you wanted to.

Yes guys so far things are alright in this thread. However we will not turn this into a battle of who's drivers are best. If so appropriate action will be taken. So continue in a civil manner and discuss ATI and Omega drivers.

Those were based on the FireGL’s OPenGL set... the set DNA just recently released DNA 2.0.4.1a.exe is based on the regular 4.1's there for DNA had his out after Omega (like useal)...
It was all its all a ploy to make his set look first so people might be awed and think he a's not copying anything...DNA can never really put out his set first …here take it straight from the horses mouth

(NOTE: this is pre cat 4.1 and post 3.9)

It would be nice if Omega-dude could give us an estimate every time ATI comes with new drivers. I have no life and connect to DH about 200 times a day till the Omega's are there... Did I mention how many time I press f5? |

Quote from Omega's site:
"When new official drivers are released by a company, expect an Omega release based on them, but don't expect a release date to be given, they will be ready when they are ready..."

They said not to turn this into an Omega vs DNA thread.
We didnt say anything bad about the drivers themselves.
All that was mentioned was that the set that KS released wasnt based off the standard 4.1s and then when Omega released his KS did a short time after again.
This is not bashing driver quality. It is merely mentioning that it appears that his dubious tactics have not changed. |
