well i use a combo of both. i use atitool to oc my card to it's max core and memory speeds and i use radlinker to set them as the new "default" speeds whenever the computer starts up... not sure if u can do that with atitool...

I use atitool to find the max overclock, then use radlinker to overclock and when I start up games, works beautifully.

I prefer to find my own max OC. Atitool sometimes falls short.

I prefer Radlinker simply, because it OCs and it does a lot more. Well that and the fact that when I first tried ATI tool it found my max speeds quite a bit lower than was really possible without artifacting.
