Omega Drivers

Hey everyone, I have a Geforce FX5200 Go 64MB and I just installed the Omega Drivers and I found no noticeable difference in Final Fantasy XI with 768x768 res and most textures highly compressed or compressed. Any suggestions?

From what I've heard, at least on the ATi side, the Omega drivers actually perform worse than the manufacturers drivers.

The purpose of the Omega drivers is image quality, not performance. So yes, they will usually perform worse.
