Because they include overclocking utils, can softmod certain cards, they work on laptops (standard drivers don't work on laptops, you have to wait for the manufacturer to release them, and they often suck) and best of all give higher fps in your games. Personally I've never had any problems with them and I've always gotten better performance. The official drivers are *** because they have been optimised for apps like 3dmark and Aquamark and not for the games themselves. Everyone who is a serious benchmarker knows that.
thy -> You are using very old drivers. Change to either Omega 5.1 or the official 5.3 ones.

The guy has official support by ATI. That could be why. Performance gains like 2-4 fps is always better than nothing.
edit: It's always easier to target benchmarking utils than too target all different flavours of games we have today.

I don't think he did it intentionally but I'll edit out the link. And please don't use Explorer, use Firefox or Opera.

Try booting to safemode and clean possible left driver related files with Drivercleaner. Boot back to standard mode and install 5.3. If you uninstall from Omega they have their own Drivercleaner.
edit:
Other things you could try:
Experiment with AA (antialiasing) and AF (anisotropic filtering) settings. Try changing resolution too.

) can get significantly more performance out of the card than the manufacturer. Don't you think they optimize their cards to the last bit to gain infront of the competiton, not only in 3dmark because all major review sites use games for benchmarking too (and i mean performance wich is stable). I doubt that you see any difference in performance in real life gaming. Performace gains like 1% is laughable for me and do not justify the use of "cracked" drivers. And i don't play games on my notebook so i'm happy with the driver from samsung/ati.
