Best drivers are right on the ATI/AMD website.

As for ATITool never tried it yet then again my card doesn't OC much or im not taking the time to risking of using more voltage on my stock cooler since its loud enough as is.

Aslo thx for mentioning something about the driver, just noticed there was a new driver released 7 days ago, going to have to give that a whirl.

I recommend using ATi's OVERDRIVE, it works just fine if you're not planning on doing anything complex.
And GPU recovery is very useful, if the GPU or drivers crash, Vista just restarts the whole video card and you don't crash or BSOD, your screen will just go blank for a few seconds and the clocks will be reset.
ATiTool does not seem to work properly in Vista... yet.

Nice Rig btw, it'll do you well.
