It is a nonsense not to recognize that ATI drivers are worse than nvidia when talking about lastest graphic technologies.

So you haven't had an ATI card for some time and yet you are still an expert on them? I would love to know how that works. If you worked in the industry and had problems with ATI then you musn't have been that good, or very unlucky, sorry but facts are facts.
It is a nonsense to listen to so called games/graphics experts claim AMD/ATI drivers suck, especially when that person has admitted to not even owning or using an ATI/AMD card for years. I work with both types of cards, building and supporting PC for both work and gaming purposes. I have found no serious problems with ATI drivers, maybe some game issues but nothing drastic and certainly not unique to AMD/ATI hardware. Nvidia on the otherhand have had a couple of very seriously bad drivers released. I had to replace two graphics cards for friends due to the "amazing Nvidia drivers" after 196.75 cooked their GPUs. So much for being better than ATI right? I have never had an ATI or AMD driver that outright killed the graphics card.
Here are some links to how wonderful the Nvidia drivers can be.

I suppose it is the fault of the users for installing these WHQL drivers, good ole Nvidia can do no wrong, right?
