cmkannan · April 15th, 2008

as u all know omega drivers are more optimized drivers that is tweaked ones of official drivers .so will these help pcsx2 in any way compared to the original ones
?

No. At least, not to the extent you're imagingign it would, if at all any improvement, obviously. You cant really compare the gains to expect from a PC game with an amulator (mainly performance-limited by the processor, in the case of PCSX2)

I have tried both of them from official nvidia n omega driver.there are no difference at all.sometimes omega driver crash my system n BSOD appear telling about inf- loops.offcourse there are many factors but the official seem to be more stable.

Edit: i tried other beta from guru3d n it just give small different or almost nothing.

He released a OMEGA driver of 169.21 which was the 2nd latest official WHQL driver. Hopefully he'll tweak some newer driver soon too. The OMEGA 169.21 only allowed up to 85Hz refresh rate is why I never used it but he said he would fix that for next release.
