Newbie ATI 9800Pro User - O/C + Drivers

Hi,
I've switched over from nVidia to ATI for the first time and am enjoying my new AIW 9800 Pro.

Which drivers are better: omega or ati?

What is a good overclocking program?

TIA,

Hey Lord Prism,

Im using the omega drivers because I was having issues with a game when using the Cat drivers but both drivers seem to give the same performance from when I benched using each. Im using Radclocker to overclock my card, It works very well and just adds itself as a tab in the video card properties.

Oh Cool. Thanks for the fast reply. I think I'll give the RadClocker a little run!

I heard the omega drivers contain an overclocking utility....I could be wrong.

I don't....I'm too afraid I would mess up my $450 graphics card....now i just use the overdrive feature, but when I did overclock my old cards I used Radclocker.
