I have always been one to keep my video card drivers up-to-date. I have been told by many that this is usually not the best practice, especially with ATI. I have the latest ATI driver package and I am noticing some issues in BC2 with stuttering. The games I mainly play are BC2, FFXIV, and recently, Crysis 2.

I was wondering which driver package [H] ATI users feel is the best option for me with the GPU in my sig. Thanks.
 
I've been fine running the latest 11.4 previews on my 5870. I would assume the same would work for you. I get stuttering in BC2 due to my cpu being unable to keep up in multiplayer.
 
The best driver package to use is the most recent one, 11.3 or 11.4 Beta. The only time this is not true is if instability of any kind makes it a less-than-optimal choice, in which case you should try other drivers. See if the newest ones work and confront that challenge if/when you get there. My 4850 is using 11.3 with no problems.
