LOL I can't say I am surprised at the results. We should all picket outside AMD and ATI's offices till we get the old CP back.

IMO the CCC is in many senses an improvement over the old ATI control panel. The main problem I have with it is the waste of resources. Some tens of MB of RAM going down the drain here. It's not a major issue for me, but it's annoying. I prefer the old NVIDIA panel to the old ATI one. Haven't seen the new NVIDIA panel yet.

I much preferred the old ATi to the new CCC. Agree with ET3D, it seems so sluggish to respond. I hate to have to make changes at all for anything anymore. The old one seemed to me equally effective and much faster.

IMO, it's close between the old NVIDIA and old ATI control panels as to which one i like best. The new one on both though are garbage IMO.
I only use the CCC because i have to, and i'm sure that eventually it will be the same for the NVIDIA control panel, use it because i have to.
It would be nice if i could select two options in the vote box.

I never used any of the ATI control panels so I can't judge them.
I prefer the old NVIDIA control panel to the new one. The new one is slower to use and it's missing some settings (mainly the stereo drivers settings).

I've used them all. Both new ones are horrible as far as I am concerned, but to me ATI's new one is much worse that NV's new one for a variety of reasons.
Both old ones are ok, but I like NV's old one better and I use it still.

I vote for ATI Tray Tools
I tried CCC (6.10) only once - uninstalled it five minutes later.

I voted for the simplest solution: old NV. I still use it. Old ATI was fine too, but it's a bit trickier to get to all the options.
Newer CPs all required a lot more mouse-clicks to do the same job...

My vote has to be for the 'Nvidia Old style'.
The reason being it was so easy to find the options most user require at hand.
The new Nvidia cp is way too confusing in my opinion.
