If you want 10% more gain, go upgrade your graphic card
the driver is free after all..

Call me a cynic, but I bet if ATI/AMD came out with a driver revision that improved performance 1 - 5% across the board, you wouldn't get all these posts about 'margin of error' but instead praised the driver team for coming up with the performance enhancements. ;)

From experience, if you are testing in a controlled state, such as a timedemo, the margin of error is very low, usually less than 1%.

I've tried this driver with my 8800GT G92, fps increased in my benchmarks, about 2-4 fps. Not bad. :)
