ATI has such crappy drivers! There was a study done to see what the biggest causes of Windows Vista crashes was and 9.3% were due to ATI drivers. Heck, that's almost 1/3 as bad as Nvidia! Shame on you ATI!

You just keep telling us how things really are Ailantd. I know that you are not just repeating things you heard on message boards stated by idiots who still think it's 1999 and that ATI doesn't account for over half the graphics market.

I agree with the comments regarding AMD (ATI) hardware. They sure have the best price/quality ratio, but they suck completely with 1C products. Even in FSX the green ones had far better performance. Never had any issues with other games though.

I remember when I bought my HD 5870... It was a freaking nightmare and long road before the Cat. driver team could make a driver that could handle 1946 in perfect mode (OpenGlide) without any problem/performance issues.
