Well, ATI seem to be upgrading them so often I just check ATI's site every few days, is all ;)

As for Nvidia, sorry, don't have any Nvidia cards now, have a pair of 9800 Pro's on my two and a 9200 128Mb VIVO on my daughter's machine.

Sorry for posting a reply right under another reply by , but this is pretty okayish reason ^^.

I've been keeping a little spreadsheet of my 3DMark03 scores with the different catalyst drivers, and what ever Ati have been doing, its been working (sort of)!

Catalyst 4.5 3DMark03 Score: 5508
Catalyst 4.6 3DMark03 Score: 5714
Catalyst 4.7 3DMark03 Score: 5771

All these scores have been on the defualt setting, but on a loop of 3 times for each test so i could get a more accurate score. It does show that there drivers do actually do something, not much, but still something ;).

5508 to 5771 is a pretty big jump!! for some people, this would mean breaking the 6k boundary...

It would be interesting to see how good the omega drivers are though if im right, i think they are about enhancing image quality, not framerates.
