They're not custom, they're BETA (i.e not official releases)

I don't think the drivers are necessarily better per se but I know they have certain tweaks and enhancements for different games and such. I haven't looked recently (also used the ATI Omega drivers) but I think it says somewhere on the site what the mods are.

The 82 and 83 drivers from nVidia are not WHQL certified, still beta so it's a use at your own risk deal. Usually doesn't make a huge difference but there are some bugs sometimes.
